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

Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels play an important role in Ca2+ signaling in many cells. CNG channels from various tissues differ profoundly in their Ca2+ permeation properties. Using the voltage-dependent Ca2+ blockage of monovalent current in wild-type channels, chimeric constructs and point mutants, we have identified structural elements that determine the distinctively different interaction of Ca2+ with CNG channels from rod and cone photoreceptors and olfactory neurons. Segments S5 and S6 and the extracellular linkers flanking the pore region are the only structural elements that account for the differences between channels. Ca2+ blockage is strongly modulated by external pH. The different pH dependence of blockage suggests that the pKa of intrapore glutamates and their protonation pattern differ among channels. The results support the hypothesis that the S5-pore-S6 module, by providing a characteristic electrostatic environment, determines the protonation state of pore glutamates and thereby controls Ca2+ affinity and permeation in each channel type.
