Agonism and Biased Signaling.
Review in Handbook of experimental pharmacology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This chapter considers biased signaling as a natural function of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in the form of probe dependence. Thus, any ligand that changes the conformation of the receptor (agonist, antagonist, or allosteric modulator) has the potential to change the natural signaling of the receptor through unequal conformational alterations in the receptor structure. This gives an added dimension to agonist selectivity beyond extracellular recognition, namely the ability of agonists to emphasize certain signaling pathways in the cell at the expense of others. Given this, selectivity is discussed in terms of varying intrinsic efficacy and selective stabilization of receptor states with methods to detect and measure these effects. Last, the translation of in vitro to complex in vivo systems will be considered.
