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

We have investigated the role of the ryanodine receptor in Drosophila development by using pharmacological and genetic approaches. We identified a P element insertion in the Drosophila ryanodine receptor gene, Ryanodine receptor 44F (Ryr), and used it to generate the hypomorphic allele Ryr(16). An examination of hypodermal, visceral, and circulatory muscle showed that, in each case, muscle contraction was impaired in Ryr(16) larvae. Treatment with the drug ryanodine, a highly specific modulator of ryanodine receptor channel activity, also inhibited muscle function, and, at high levels, completely blocked hypodermal muscle contraction. These results suggest that the ryanodine receptor is required for proper muscle function and may be essential for excitation-contraction coupling in larval body wall muscles. Nonmuscle roles of Ryr were also investigated. Ryanodine-sensitive Ca(2+) stores had previously been implicated in phototransduction; to address this, we generated Ryr(16) mutant clones in the adult eye and performed whole-cell, patch-clamp recordings on dissociated ommatidia. Our results do not support a role for Ryr in normal light responses.
