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 G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family of genes represents one of the largest druggable families of genes in the human genome. This is evident by the fact that approximately 30% of currently marketed drugs target GPCRs. However, many of these drugs are limited in their clinical potential as they are associated with debilitating side effects-a consequence of our incomplete understanding of their pharmacology and the signaling pathways regulated by GPCRs. Because of the limited range of tools available to resolve these issues, integrated approaches are required to fully understand the pharmacological action of drugs and the biochemical repertoire regulated by GPCRs. In this review we will focus on the action of antipsychotic drugs on certain monoamine GPCRs in the central nervous system (CNS) and the approaches being developed to elucidate their distinct pharmacology.
