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

purposeThe D3 dopamine receptor exhibits tolerance and slow response termination (SRT) properties that are not exhibited by the closely-related D2 dopamine receptor. We previously demonstrated that the induction of tolerance elicits a unique conformational change in the D3 receptor. Here we tested the hypothesis that the tolerance and SRT properties of the D3 receptor are ligand-dependent.

methodsWe used pharmacophore modeling and in silico screening approaches coupled with electrophysiological and biochemical methods to identify and functionally characterize the novel dopamine receptor agonists.

resultsWe identified cis-8-OH-PBZI (PBZI), FAUC73 and an additional novel compound, ES609, which although they are full D3 receptor agonists, do not induce the tolerance and SRT properties of the D3 receptor. In addition, PBZI has full intrinsic activity at D2L, is a partial agonist at D2S and exhibits functional selectivity at D4.2 dopamine receptors. ES609 is a partial agonist at D2S, D2L and D4.2 receptors, and exhibits functional selectivity at D2L and D4.2 dopamine receptors.

conclusionWe have discovered a novel class of atypical dopamine receptor agonists that include three structurally dissimilar compounds. These new agonists will help determine the physiological and pathophysiological relevance of D3 receptor tolerance and SRT properties.
