Validation of ion channel targets.
Review in Channels (Austin, Tex.), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A prerequisite for a successful target-based drug discovery program is a robust data set that increases confidence in the validation of the molecular target and the therapeutic approach. Given the significant time and resource investment required to carry a drug to market, early selection of targets that can be modulated safely and effectively forms the basis for a strong portfolio and pipeline. In this article we present some of the more useful scientific approaches that can be applied toward the validation of ion channel targets, a molecular family with a history of clinical success in therapeutic areas such as cardiovascular, respiratory, pain and neuroscience.
