G Protein-Coupled Receptor Endocytosis Confers Uniformity in Responses to Chemically Distinct Ligands.
Article in Molecular pharmacology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
The ability of chemically distinct ligands to produce different effects on the same G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) has interesting therapeutic implications, but, if excessively propagated downstream, would introduce biologic noise compromising cognate ligand detection. We asked whether cells have the ability to limit the degree to which chemical diversity imposed at the ligand-GPCR interface is propagated to the downstream signal. We carried out an unbiased analysis of the integrated cellular response elicited by two chemically and pharmacodynamically diverse β-adrenoceptor agonists, isoproterenol and salmeterol. We show that both ligands generate an identical integrated response, and that this stereotyped output requires endocytosis. We further demonstrate that the endosomal β2-adrenergic receptor signal confers uniformity on the downstream response because it is highly sensitive and saturable. Based on these findings, we propose that GPCR signaling from endosomes functions as a biologic noise filter to enhance reliability of cognate ligand detection.
