ChanFAD: A Functional Annotation Database for Ion Channels.
Article in Frontiers in bioinformatics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Ion channels are integral membrane protein complexes critical for regulation of membrane potential, cell volume, and other signaling events. As complex molecular assemblies with many interacting partners, ion channels have multiple structural and functional domains. While channel sequence and functional data are readily available across multiple online resources, there is an unmet need for functional annotation directly relating primary sequence information, 2D interactions, and three-dimensional protein structure. To this end, we present ChanFAD (Channel Functional Annotation Database), to provide the research community with a centralized resource for ion channel structure and functional data. ChanFAD provides functional annotation of PDB structures built on the National Center for Biotechnology Information's iCn3D structure viewing tool while providing additional information such as primary sequence, organism, and relevant links to other databases. Here we provide a brief tour of ChanFAD functionality while showing example use cases involving drug-channel interactions and structural changes based on mutation. ChanFAD is freely available and can be accessed at https://www.chanfad.org/.
