Lack of correlation between surface expression and currents in epileptogenic AB-calmodulin binding domain Kv7.2 potassium channel mutants.
Article in Channels (Austin, Tex.), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Heteromers of Kv7.2/Kv7.3 subunits constitute the main substrate of the neuronal M-current that limits neuronal hyper-excitability and firing frequency. Calmodulin (CaM) binding is essential for surface expression of Kv7 channels, and disruption of this interaction leads to diseases ranging from mild epilepsy to early onset encephalopathy. In this study, we addressed the impact of a charge neutralizing mutation located at the periphery of helix B (K526N). We found that, CaM binding and surface expression was impaired, although current amplitude was not altered. Currents were reduced at a faster rate after activation of a voltage-dependent phosphatase, suggesting that phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP
