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

For almost 30 years, photoaffinity labeling and protein microsequencing techniques have been providing novel insights about the structure of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) and the diversity of nAChR drug binding sites. Photoaffinity labeling allows direct identification of amino acid residues contributing to a drug binding site without prior knowledge of the location of the binding site within the nAChR or the orientation of the ligand within the binding site. It also distinguishes amino acids that contribute to allosteric binding sites from those involved in allosteric modulation of gating. While photoaffinity labeling was used initially to identify amino acids contributing to the agonist binding sites and the ion channel, it has been used recently to identify binding sites for allosteric modulators at subunit interfaces in the extracellular and the transmembrane domains, and within a subunit's transmembrane helix bundle. In this article, we review the different types of photoaffinity probes that have been used and the various binding sites that have been identified within the structure of nAChR, with emphasis on our recent studies of allosteric modulator binding sites.
