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

The human voltage-gated proton channel, hHV1, appears to exist mainly as a dimer. Teleologically, this is puzzling because each protomer retains the main properties that characterize this protein: proton conduction that is regulated by conformational (channel opening and closing) changes that occur in response to both voltage and pH. The HV1 dimer is mainly linked by C-terminal coiled-coil interactions. Several types of mutations produce monomeric constructs that open approximately five times faster than the wild-type dimeric channel but with weaker voltage dependence. Intriguingly, the quintessential function of the HV1 dimer, opening to allow H(+) conduction, occurs cooperatively. Both protomers undergo a conformational change, but both must undergo this transition before either can conduct. The teleological purpose of dimerization may be to steepen the voltage dependence of channel opening, at least in phagocytes. In other cells, the purpose is not understood. Finally, several single-celled species have HV that are likely monomeric.
