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

NMDA receptors mediate a slow Ca(2+)-permeable component of excitatory synaptic transmission, and are involved in numerous normal brain functions including learning and memory. NMDA receptor over-activation can lead to cell death and abnormal excitation in ischemia associated with stroke, traumatic brain injury, and epilepsy. We have explored a series of novel noncompetitive allosteric modulators of NMDA receptor function characterized by an iminothiazolidinone ring. Saturating concentrations of these compounds inhibit NMDA receptors to varying maximal extents, raising the possibility that they may attenuate over-activation in pathological situations while preserving some minimal receptor function, which may limit side-effects. The best in class compounds have sub-micromolar IC50 values and show modest preference for GluN2C- and GluN2D-containing receptors.
