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

Tyrosine phosphorylation of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) is associated with an altered rate of receptor desensitization and also may play a role in agrin-induced receptor clustering. We have demonstrated a previously unsuspected interaction between Torpedo AChR and the adaptor protein Grb2. The binding is mediated by the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of Grb2 and the tyrosine-phosphorylated delta subunit of the AChR. Dephosphorylation of the delta subunit abolishes Grb2 binding. A cytoplasmic domain of the delta subunit contains a binding motif (pYXNX) for the SH2 domain of Grb2. Indeed, a phosphopeptide corresponding to this region of the delta subunit binds to Grb2 SH2 fusion proteins with relatively high affinity, whereas a peptide lacking phosphorylation on tyrosine exhibits no binding. Grb2 is colocalized with the AChR on the innervated face of Torpedo electrocytes. Furthermore, Grb2 specifically copurifies with AChR solubilized from postsynaptic membranes. These data suggest a novel role for tyrosine phosphorylation of the AChR in the initiation of a Grb2-mediated signaling cascade at the postsynaptic membrane.
