Significance of Taurine in the Brain.
Review in Advances in experimental medicine and biology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Two main functions of taurine in the brain are here discussed: the role of taurine in cell volume regulation and the neuromodulatory actions of taurine liberated by depolarization. Taurine takes part in cell volume regulation with other small-molecular compounds. Extracellular taurine inhibits neuronal firing through GABA and glycine receptors. However, the existence of specific taurine receptors is still not excluded.
