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

Sarcolemma Ca2+ influx, necessary for store refilling, was well maintained, over a wide range (-70 to + 40 mV) of membrane voltages, in guinea-pig single circular colonic smooth muscle cells, as indicated by the magnitude of InsP3-evoked Ca2+ transients. This apparent voltage independence of store refilling was achieved by the activity of sarcolemma Ca2+ channels some of which were voltage gated while others were not. At negative membrane potentials (e.g. -70 mV), Ca2+ influx through channels which lacked voltage gating provided for store refilling while at positive membrane potentials (e.g. +40 mV) voltage-gated Ca2+ channels were largely responsible. Sarcolemma voltage-gated Ca2+ currents were not activated following store depletion. Removal of external Ca2+ or the addition of the Ca2+ channel blocker nimodipine (1 microM) inhibited store refilling, as assessed by the magnitude of InsP3-evoked Ca2+ transients, with little or no change in bulk average cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration. One hypothesis for these results is that the store may refill from a high subsarcolemma Ca2+ gradient. Influx via channels, some of which are voltage gated and others which lack voltage gating, may permit the establishment of a subsarcolemma Ca2+ gradient. Store access to the gradient allows InsP3-evoked Ca2+ signalling to be maintained over a wide voltage range in colonic smooth muscle.
