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

Recently it has been hypothesized that, in skeletal muscle, NO produced directly by high-frequency stimulation could produce contraction through reactions with thiol groups on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). However, a possible cGMP-mediated relaxing effect, similar to that seen in smooth muscle, has also been demonstrated. We used purified SR preparations and single fibres from frog fast muscles incubated with different concentrations of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) in this study. The results obtained from a long low-frequency stimulation, together with those from a study on Ca2+ transport regulation, showed that the presence of NO precursor induced: an acceleration of the onset of fatigue in single fibres; a decreased vesicular Ca2+ content due to increased Ca2+ release; a shift to open status in SR Ca2+ channels; an increase in SR Ca2+ pump activity. The data presented in this paper seem to indicate that the increased NO in the muscle fibres can influence muscle activity in different ways, perhaps depending on the metabolic status of the muscle and target (filaments, sarcolemma, SR) with which the NO (or its derivatives) acts.
