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

Here, we detail a surface biotinylation technique used to label surface-expressed proteins in primary neuronal cultures. Surface proteins are labeled with membrane-impermeant Sulfo-NHS-SS-biotin, and isolated by pull-down with streptavidin beads followed by western blotting to measure levels of surface expression of the protein of interest under different conditions. We have used this approach extensively to monitor activity-dependent changes in α-Amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) and kainate receptor (KAR) subunits. However, this protocol can be used to investigate any surface-expressed protein. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Nair et al. (2021).
