Airway Epithelial Nucleotide Release Contributes to Mucociliary Clearance.
Review in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Mucociliary clearance (MCC) is a dominant component of pulmonary host defense. In health, the periciliary layer (PCL) is optimally hydrated, thus acting as an efficient lubricant layer over which the mucus layer moves by ciliary force. Airway surface dehydration and production of hyperconcentrated mucus is a common feature of chronic obstructive lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis (CF) and chronic bronchitis (CB). Mucus hydration is driven by electrolyte transport activities, which in turn are regulated by airway epithelial purinergic receptors. The activity of these receptors is controlled by the extracellular concentrations of ATP and its metabolite adenosine. Vesicular and conducted pathways contribute to ATP release from airway epithelial cells. In this study, we review the evidence leading to the identification of major components of these pathways: (a) the vesicular nucleotide transporter VNUT (the product of the SLC17A9 gene), the ATP transporter mediating ATP storage in (and release from) mucin granules and secretory vesicles; and (b) the ATP conduit pannexin 1 expressed in non-mucous airway epithelial cells. We further illustrate that ablation of pannexin 1 reduces, at least in part, airway surface liquid (ASL) volume production, ciliary beating, and MCC rates.
