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

1. The role of calcium (Ca2+) channel inactivation in the molecular mechanism of channel block by phenylalkylamines (PAAs) was analysed in a PAA-sensitive rabbit brain class A Ca2+ channel mutant (alpha1A-PAA). Use-dependent barium current (IBa) inhibition of alpha1A-PAA by (-)gallopamil and Ca2+ channel recovery from inactivation and block were studied with two-microlectrode voltage clamp after expression of alpha1A-PAA and auxiliary alpha2-delta- and beta1a- or beta2a-subunits in Xenopus oocytes. 2. Mutation Arg387Glu (alpha1A numbering) in the intracellular loop connecting domains I and II of alpha1A-PAA slowed the inactivation kinetics and reduced use-dependent inhibition (100 ms test pulses at 0.2 Hz from -80 to 20 mV) of the resulting mutant alpha1A-PAA/R-E/beta1a channels by 100 microM (-)gallopamil (53 +/- 2 %, alpha1A-PAA/beta1a vs. 31 +/- 2 %, alpha1A-PAA/R-E/beta1a, n >= 4). This amino acid substitution simultaneously accelerated the recovery of channels from inactivation and from block by (-)gallopamil. 3. Coexpression of alpha1A-PAA with the beta2a-subunit reduced fast IBa inactivation and induced a substantial reduction in use-dependent IBa inhibition by (-)gallopamil (25 +/- 4 %, alpha1A-PAA/beta2a; 13 +/- 1 %, alpha1A-PAA/R-E/beta2a). The time constant of recovery from block at rest was not significantly affected. 4. These results demonstrate that changes in channel inactivation induced by Arg387Glu or beta2a-alpha1-subunit interaction affect the drug-channel interaction.
