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

The process leading from electrical membrane excitation of skeletal muscle fibres to contraction is a classic example of a rapid cellular activation mechanism. Its initial step is a massive release of Ca2+ from a storage compartment, the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), into the myoplasm. Ca2+ release occurs through ryanodine receptors (RyRs), homotetrameric ion channel proteins of an enormous mass (ca 2 3 million Da). In excitation-contraction (EC) coupling the type 1 isoform of the RyR (RyR1) is remotely controlled by plasma membrane voltage. A system of narrow invaginations of the plasma membrane, the transverse tubules (T-system), carries the muscle action potential to specialized regions, the triads, where the membranes of the T-system and the terminal cisternae of the SR are in close apposition.
