Merging old and new perspectives on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors.
Review in Biochemical pharmacology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 108 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
This review covers history underlying the discovery of the molecular mediators of nicotine's effects in the brain and the diversity of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) subtypes. Models are presented for both their structure and their function as mediators of signal transduction, with special consideration of the differences between the two main subtypes: heteromeric receptors, which are specialized for rapid electrochemical signal transduction, and homomeric α7 receptors, which have come to be implicated in both ionotropic and metabotropic signaling. This review presents perspectives on the pharmacology and therapeutic targeting of nAChRs for the treatment of nicotine dependence or disease.
