Ligand-Dependent Intramolecular Motion of Native Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors Determined in Living Myotube Cells via Diffracted X-ray Tracking.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are ligand-gated ion channels that play an important role in signal transduction at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Movement of the nAChR extracellular domain following agonist binding induces conformational changes in the extracellular domain, which in turn affects the transmembrane domain and opens the ion channel. It is known that the surrounding environment, such as the presence of specific lipids and proteins, affects nAChR function. Diffracted X-ray tracking (DXT) facilitates measurement of the intermolecular motions of receptors on the cell membranes of living cells, including all the components involved in receptor function. In this study, the intramolecular motion of the extracellular domain of native nAChR proteins in living myotube cells was analyzed using DXT for the first time. We revealed that the motion of the extracellular domain in the presence of an agonist (e.g., carbamylcholine, CCh) was restricted by an antagonist (i.e., alpha-bungarotoxin, BGT).
