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

unlabelledThe neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is reported to play an important role in migraine. It is expressed throughout the trigeminovascular system. Antagonists targeting the CGRP receptor have been developed and have shown efficacy in clinical trials for migraine. However, no CGRP antagonist is yet approved for treating this condition. The molecular composition of the CGRP receptor is unusual because it comprises two subunits; one is a GPCR, the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CLR). This associates with receptor activity-modifying protein (RAMP) 1 to yield a functional receptor for CGRP. However, RAMP1 also associates with the calcitonin receptor, creating a receptor for the related peptide amylin but this also has high affinity for CGRP. Other combinations of CLR or the calcitonin receptor with RAMPs can also generate receptors that are responsive to CGRP. CGRP potentially modulates an array of signal transduction pathways downstream of activation of these receptors, in a cell type-dependent manner. The physiological significance of these signalling processes remains unclear but may be a potential avenue for refining drug design. This complexity has prompted us to review the signalling and expression of CGRP and related receptors in the trigeminovascular system. This reveals that more than one CGRP responsive receptor may be expressed in key parts of this system and that further work is required to determine their contribution to CGRP physiology and pathophysiology.
