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

The ionotropic glutamate receptor GluA2 is considered to be an attractive target for positive allosteric modulation for the development of pharmacological tools or cognitive enhancers. Here, we report a detailed structural characterization of two recently reported dimeric positive allosteric modulators, TDPAM01 and TDPAM02, with nanomolar potency at GluA2. Using X-ray crystallography, TDPAM01 and TDPAM02 were crystallized in the ligand-binding domain of the GluA2 flop isoform as well as in the flip-like mutant N775S and the preformed dimer L504Y-N775S. In all structures, one modulator molecule binds at the dimer interface with two characteristic hydrogen bonds being formed from the modulator to Pro515. Whereas the GluA2 dimers and modulator binding mode are similar when crystallized in the presence of l-glutamate, the shape of the binding site differs when no l-glutamate is present. TDPAM02 has no effect on domain closure in both apo and l-glutamate bound GluA2 dimers compared to structures without modulator.
