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

Outside-out patches excised from extrajunctional membrane of locust muscle were subjected to "concentration jumps" of L-glutamate, using the liquid filament switch technique, to study channel opening and closing rates, desensitization onset, and recovery from desensitization of a quisqualate-sensitive glutamate receptor (qGluR). Based on data obtained from these experimental studies, computer modeling techniques have been used in an attempt to simulate the behavior of qGluR during a concentration jump of L-glutamate. A linear model with three closed states (one unliganded, one monoliganded, and one biliganded), one open state (binding two molecules of L-glutamate), and two desensitization states (the one monoliganded, the other biliganded) leading from the unliganded closed state simulated all of the experimentally observed behavior. The results are discussed in the context of previous equilibrium studies in which desensitization was inhibited with concanavalin A and for which a ten-state model was required to simulate the behavior of qGluR.
