P2X3 receptor expression by HEK cells conditions their survival.
Article in Purinergic signalling, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
On nociceptive neurons, one important mechanism to generate pain signals is the activation of P2X3 receptors, which are membrane proteins gated by extracellular ATP. In this work, we have studied the recovery of recombinant P2X3 receptor expression in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells. Our data demonstrated that HEK cells were not permissive for stable P2X3 expression, since the significant time-dependent cell loss. In vivo treatment with P2X3 receptor antagonist limited the effect. The expression of a single P2X3 point mutant Y393A, also largely accelerated cell death. We suggest the requirements of a permissive intracellular molecular machinery for appropriate receptor expression. The present report suggests that despite HEK cells are often used as recombinant expression system for the study a variety of receptors function, they represent a limiting permissive environment for P2X3 receptors.
