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

Dopamine D1 receptor (D1R) plays key roles in health and disease. D1R is broadly expressed throughout the brain and body and is dynamically activated in response to endogenous dopamine, making it difficult to target this receptor with sufficient precision. We previously developed a robust light-activatable, tetherable agonist for D1R, wherein a temporally precise photo-switch (the P compound) binds to a genetically-encoded membrane anchoring protein (the M protein) in specific brain locations and cell types. Here we extended our approach by developing a complementary antagonist P compound that could be used to block specific populations of D1R in the brain with precise timing. Together, we have generated a robust toolkit for interrogating D1R function in the brain with unprecedented precision.
