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 alcohol-tolerant AT and alcohol-nontolerant ANT rat lines have been selectively bred for innate sensitivity to ethanol-induced motor impairment. The cerebellar GABAA receptor (GABAAR) α6 subunit alleles α6-100R and α6-100Q are segregated in the AT and ANT rats, respectively. This α6 polymorphism might explain various differences in pharmacological properties and density of GABAARs between the rat lines. In the present study, we have used nonselected outbred Sprague-Dawley rats homozygous for the α6-100RR (RR) and α6-100QQ (QQ) genotypes to show that these RR and QQ rats display similar differences between genotypes as AT and ANT rat lines. The genotypes differed in their affinity for [3H]Ro 15-4513 and classic benzodiazepines (BZs) to cerebellar "diazepam-insensitive" (DZ-IS) binding sites, in density of cerebellar [3H]muscimol binding and in the antagonizing effect of furosemide on GABA-induced inhibition of [3H]EBOB binding. The results suggest the involvement of α6-R100Q polymorphism in these line differences and in the differences previously found between AT and ANT rats. In addition, the α6-R100Q polymorphism induces striking differences in [3H]Ro 15-4513 binding kinetics to recombinant α6β3γ2s receptors and cerebellar DZ-IS sites. Association of [3H]Ro 15-4513 binding was ∼10-fold faster and dissociation was ∼3-4-fold faster in DZ-IS α6βγ2 receptors containing the α6-100Q allele, with a resulting change of ∼2.5-fold in equilibrium dissociation constant (KD). The results indicate that in addition to the central role of the homologous α6-100R/Q (α1-101H) residue in BZ binding and efficacy, this critical BZ binding site residue has a major impact on BZ binding kinetics.
