Polycystic kidney disease 2-like 1 channel contributes to the bitter aftertaste perception of quinine.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Bitterness is an important physiological function in the defense responses to avoid toxic foods. The taste receptor 2 family is well known to mediate bitter taste perception in Type II taste cells. Here, we report that the polycystic kidney disease 2-like 1 (PKD2L1) channel is a novel sensor for the bitter aftertaste in Type III taste cells. The PKD2L1 channel showed rebound activation after the washout of quinine, a bitter tastant, in electrophysiological whole-cell recordings of the PKD2L1-expressing HEK293T cells and Ca
