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. 12-Lipoxygenase produces 12-hydroperoxy acid from arachidonic acid released from membrane phospholipids. To elucidate the role of the enzyme in neuronal functions, mouse neuroblastoma x rat glioma hybrid NG108-15 cells were permanently transfected with the cDNA for human 12-lipoxygenase. 2. The number of action potentials evoked by depolarizing current steps in a current-clamp mode was strikingly increased in 12-lipoxygenase-expressing NG108-15 cells as compared with the wild-type cells which hardly had the enzyme activity. 3. In the transformed cells, the M-type voltage-dependent K+ current was significantly reduced with little or no change in other ion channel currents. 4. Treatment of the transformed cells with a 12-lipoxygenase inhibitor recovered the action potential frequency and the M-current amplitude to the control level. 5. These results indicate that 12-lipoxygenase and/or its metabolites target K+ channels and upregulate the membrane excitability, and thereby modulate neuronal signalling.
