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

To reach the open state, the GABA(A) receptor (GABA(A)R) is assumed to bind two agonist molecules. Although it is currently believed that GABA(A)R could also operate in the monoliganded state, the gating properties of singly bound GABA(A)R are poorly understood and their physiological role is still obscure. In the present study, we characterize for the first time the gating properties of singly bound GABA(A)Rs by using a mutagenesis approach and we propose that monoliganded GABA(A)R contribute in shaping synaptic responses. At saturating GABA concentrations, currents mediated by recombinant GABA(A)Rs with a single functional binding site display slow onset, fast deactivation kinetics, and slow rate of desensitization-resensitization. GABA(A)Rs with two binding sites activated by brief pulses of subsaturating GABA concentrations (in the range of the GABA concentration profile in the synaptic cleft) could also mediate fast deactivating currents, displaying deactivation kinetics similar to those mediated by GABA(A)Rs with a single functional binding site. Model simulations of receptors activated by realistic synaptic GABA waves revealed that a considerable proportion of GABA(A) receptors open in the monoliganded state during synaptic transmission, therefore contributing in shaping IPSCs.
