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

Synaptotagmins are Ca2+-and phospholipid-binding proteins of synaptic vesicles that might function as Ca2+ receptors for neurotransmitter release via their first C2 (C2A) domain. Here we describe the effect of Mg2+ on phospholipid binding to the C2A domains of multiple synaptotagmins (II-VI), and demonstrate that only synaptotagmin III can bind negatively charged phospholipids [phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylinositol] in a Mg2+-dependent manner. The Mg2+-dependent interaction with PS was found to have an EC50 of approx. 30 microM Mg2+, which is comparable to that of Sr2+ and Ba2+ (EC50 values of approx. 10 microM). This binding property of the C2A domain is specific to synaptotagmin III, because none of the C2A domains of other proteins, such as rabphilin 3A, Doc2alpha, Doc2beta or Gap1(m), showed phospholipid binding activity in the presence of 1 mM Mg2+. Our results suggest that synaptotagmin III is involved in presynaptic functions different from those of synaptotagmins I and II.
