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

D-Aspartate (D-Asp) activates an excitatory current in neurons of Aplysia californica. Although D-Asp is presumed to activate a subset of L-glutamate (L-Glu) channels, the identities of putative d-Asp receptors and channels are unclear. Whole cell voltage- and current-clamp studies using primary cultures of Aplysia buccal S cluster (BSC) neurons were executed to characterize D-Asp-activated ion channels. Both D-Asp and L-Glu evoked currents with similar current-voltage relationships, amplitudes, and relatively slow time courses of activation and inactivation when agonists were pressure applied. D-Asp-induced currents, however, were faster and desensitized longer, requiring 40 s to return to full amplitude. Of cells exposed to both agonists, 25% had D-Asp- but not L-Glu-induced currents, suggesting a receptor for D-Asp that was independent of l-Glu receptors. D-Asp channels were permeable to Na(+) and K(+), but not Ca²⁺, and were vulnerable to voltage-dependent Mg²⁺ block similarly to vertebrate NMDA receptor (NMDAR) channels. d-Asp may activate both NMDARs and non-l-Glu receptors in the nervous system of Aplysia.
