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

Postsynaptic AMPA/glutamate receptors, essential for neuronal excitability, are important targets for anticonvulsant therapy. This single channel study of the selective noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonist, perampanel, was performed on homotetrameric GluA3 receptor-channels that open in a stepwise manner to four distinct conductance levels through independent subunit activation. Previous structural studies show that perampanel binds to four sites located within the extracellular/transmembrane boundary of closed AMPA receptor-channel subunits. We found that channels exposed to 1 or 2 μM perampanel opened mainly to the two lower conductance levels in a dose-dependent manner. Comparison of the single channel results in the structures of the full length AMPA receptor in the closed state bound to perampanel, and the open state provide insights into the mechanism of allosteric reduction of AMPA-receptor-mediated excitation in epilepsy.
