Search for adenosine A2A spare receptors on peripheral human lymphocytes.
Article in FEBS open bio, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Some ligand-receptor couples involve spare receptors, which are apparent when a maximal response is achieved with only a small fraction of the receptor population occupied. This situation favours cross-reactions with low-affinity ligands, which may be detrimental for cell signaling. In the case of the adenosine A2A receptors (A2AR), which have an immunosuppressive effect on lymphocytes through cAMP production, the presence of spare A2AR remains to be established. We examined the situation using patients over-expressing lymphocyte A2AR and an agonist-like mAb to A2AR. We found that maximal mAb binding and functional response varied among the patients whereas the dissociation constant and half-maximal effective concentration had similar mean values (0.19 and 0.18 μM, respectively). Lymphocyte A2AR expression was correlated to plasma adenosine level and A2AR occupation but not to A2AR response. These results are consistent with a lack of a reserve of functional A2AR on human lymphocytes as a general rule and suggest that the amount and functional state of the expressed A2AR determine the maximal level of the lymphocyte response to adenosine.
