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.
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
Modulation of activation kinetics by divalent ions is one of the characteristic features of Eag channels. Here, we report that Mg(2+)-dependent deceleration of Eag channel activation is significantly attenuated by a G297E mutation, which exhibits a gain-of-function phenotype in Drosophila by suppressing the effect of shaker mutation on behavior and neuronal excitability. The G297 residue is located in the intracellular linker of transmembrane segments S2 and S3, and is thus not involved in direct binding of Mg(2+) ions. Moreover, mutation of the only positively charged residue in the other intracellular linker between S4 and S5 also results in a dramatic reduction of Mg(2+)-dependent modulation of Eag activation kinetics. Collectively, the two mutations in eag eliminate or even paradoxically reverse the effect of Mg(2+) on channel activation and inactivation kinetics. Together, these results suggest an important role of the intracellular linker regions in gating processes of Eag channels.
