Two-state model explaining thermodynamic regulation of thermo-gating channels.

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
Temperature-sensitive ion channels, such as those from the TRP family (thermo-TRPs) present in all animal cells, serve to perceive heat and cold sensations. A considerable number of protein structures have been reported for these ion channels, providing a solid basis for revealing their structure-function relationship. Previous functional studies suggest that the thermosensing ability of TRP channels is primarily determined by the properties of their cytosolic domain. Despite their importance in sensing and wide interests in the development of suitable therapeutics, the precise mechanisms underlying acute and steep temperature-mediated channel gating remain enigmatic. Here, we propose a model in which the thermo-TRP channels directly sense external temperature through the formation and dissociation of metastable cytoplasmic domains. An open-close bistable system is described in the framework of equilibrium thermodynamics, and the middle-point temperature
