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

Class A G protein-coupled receptors have evolved to recognize ligands ranging from small-molecule odorants to proteins. Although they are among the most diverse membrane receptors in eukaryotic organisms, they possess a highly conserved core within their seven-transmembrane helix framework. The conservation of the transmembrane core has led to the idea of a common mechanism by which ligand binding is coupled to the outward rotation of helix H6, the hallmark of an active receptor. Nevertheless, there is still no consensus on the mechanism of coupling or on the roles of specific residues within the core. Recent insights from crystallography and NMR spectroscopy provide a way to decompose the core into its essential structural and functional elements that shed new light on this important region.
