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

Voltage-gated potassium channels were studied in cell-attached and outside-out patches from the soma and primary apical dendrite of large layer 5 pyramidal neurons in acute slices of rat sensorimotor cortex (22-25 degrees C). Ensemble averages revealed that some patches contained only fast, I(A)-like channels, other contained only I(K)-like channels that did not inactivate or inactivated slowly, and the remainder contained mixtures of both types. I(A) and I(K) channels had mean unitary conductances of 8.5 and 20.3 pS, respectively, and had distinctive patterns of gating. Peak activation curves for ensemble-averaged currents were described by the Boltzmann equation with half-maximal voltage [V(1/2)] and slope factor (k) values of -24.5 mV and 16.9 mV for I(A) and -7.6 mV and 10.1 mV for I(K) (patches < 250 microm from the soma) or -22.9 mV and 16.2 mV for I(A) (patches > 250 microm from the soma). The steady-state inactivation curve for I(A) gave V(1/2) and k values of -72.3 mV and -5.9 mV (< 250 microm from the soma) or -83.1 mV and -6.5 mV (> 250 microm from the soma). These values were similar to the corresponding data for I(A) and I(K) in nucleated patches from the same cell. The amount of I(A) and I(K) present in patches depended weakly on distance along the primary apical dendrite from the soma. The amplitude of I(A) increased, on the average, by 2.3 pA per 100 microm, while the amplitude of I(K) decreased by 0.4 pA per 100 microm. I(A) and I(K) channels in dendritic cell-attached patches were activated by the passage of a back-propagating action potential past the tip of the patch electrode. These results show directly that these potassium channels participate in action potential repolarisation, and thus contribute to the process of synaptic integration in these neurons.
