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

Eag1 is neuron-specific K(+) channel abundantly expressed in the brain and retina. Subcellular localization and physiological analyses in neurons reveal that Eag1 may participate in Ca(2+)-signaling processes in the synapse. Here, we searched for rat Eag1 (rEag1)-binding proteins that may contribute to Ca(2+) regulation of the K(+) channel. Yeast two-hybrid screening identified centrin 4, a member of the centrin family of Ca(2+)-binding proteins. GST pull-down and immunoprecipitation assays in brain and retina lysates confirm the interaction of centrin with rEag1 in neurons. Centrin 4 binds to rEag1 in the absence of Ca(2+). Raising Ca(2+) concentration enhances the association efficiency of centrin 4 and rEag1, and is required for the suppression of rEag1 currents by centrin 4. Altogether, our data suggest that centrin 4 is a novel binding partner that may contribute to Ca(2+) regulation of rEag1 in neurons.
