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 studied the gating kinetics, especially the kinetics of recovery from inactivation, of T-type Ca(2+) channels (T-channels) in thalamic neurons. The recovery course is associated with no discernible Ca(2+) current and is characterized by an initial delay, as well as a subsequent exponential phase. These findings are qualitatively similar to previous observations on neuronal Na(+) channels and suggest that T-channels also must deactivate to recover from inactivation. In contrast to Na(+) channels in which both the delay and the time constant of the exponential phase are shortened with increasing hyperpolarization, in T-channels the time constant of the exponential recovery phase remains unchanged between -100 and -200 mV, although the initial delay is still shortened e-fold per 43 mV hyperpolarization over the same voltage range. The deactivating kinetics of tail T-currents also show a similar voltage dependence between -90 and -170 mV. According to the hinged-lid model of fast inactivation, these findings suggest that the affinity difference between inactivating peptide binding to the activated channel and binding to the fully deactivated channel is much smaller in T-channels than in Na(+) channels. Moreover, the inactivating peptide in T-channels seems to have much slower binding and unbinding kinetics, and the unbinding rates probably remain unchanged once the inactivated T-channel has gone through the initial steps of deactivation and "closes" the pore (with the activation gate). T-channels thus might have a more rigid hinge and a more abrupt conformational change in the inactivation machinery associated with opening and closing of the pore.
