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

Kinetic models have been employed to understand the logic of substrate transport through transporters of the Solute Carrier (SLC) family. All SLC transporters operate according to the alternate access model, which posits that substrate transport occurs in a closed loop of partial reactions (i.e., a transport cycle). Kinetic models can help to find realistic estimates for conformational transitions between individual states of the transport cycle. When constrained by experimental results, kinetic models can faithfully describe the function of a candidate transporter at a pre-steady state. In addition, we show that kinetic models can accurately predict the intra- and extracellular substrate concentrations maintained by the transporter at a steady state, even under the premise of loose coupling between the electrochemical gradient of the driving ion and of the substrate. We define the criteria for the design of a credible kinetic model of the SLC transporter. Parsimony is the guiding principle of kinetic modeling. We argue, however, that the level of acceptable parsimony is limited by the need to account for the substrate gradient established by a secondary active transporter, and for random order binding of co-substrates and substrate. Random order binding has consistently been observed in transporters of the SLC group.
