1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The luteinizing hormone receptor (LHR) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) particularly susceptible to spontaneous pathogenic gain-of-function mutations. Protein structure network (PSN) analysis on wild-type LHR and two constitutively active mutants, combined with in vitro mutational analysis, served to identify key amino acids that are part of the regulatory network responsible for propagating communication between the extracellular and intracellular poles of the receptor. Highly conserved amino acids in the rhodopsin family GPCRs participate in the protein structural stability as network hubs in both the inactive and active states. Moreover, they behave as the most recurrent nodes in the communication paths between the extracellular and intracellular sides in both functional states with emphasis on the active one. In this respect, non-conservative loss-of-function mutations of these amino acids is expected to impair the most relevant way of communication between activating mutation sites or hormone-binding domain and G protein recognition regions.
