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

It recently was proposed [Loo, D. D. F., Zeuthen, T., Chandy, G. & Wright, E. M. (1996) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 93, 13367--13370] that SGLT1, the high affinity intestinal and renal sodium/glucose cotransporter carries water molecules along with the cosubstrates with a strict stoichiometry of two Na(+), one glucose, and approximately 220 water molecules per transport cycle. Using electrophysiology together with sensitive volumetric measurements, we investigated the nature of the driving force behind the cotransporter-mediated water flux. The osmotic water permeability of oocytes expressing human SGLT1 (L(p) +/- SE) averaged 3.8 +/- 0.3 x 10(-4) cm x s(-1) (n = 15) and addition of 100 microM phlorizin (a specific SGLT1 inhibitor) reduced the permeability to 2.2 +/- 0.2 x 10(-4) cm x s(-1) (n = 15), confirming the presence of a significant water permeability closely associated with the cotransporter. Addition of 5 mM alpha-methyl-glucose (alpha MG) induced an average inward current of 800 +/- 10 nA at -50 mV and a water influx reaching 120 +/- 20 pL cm(-2) x s(-1) within 5-8 min. After rapidly inhibiting the Na(+)/glucose cotransport with phlorizin, the water flux remained significantly elevated, clearly indicating the presence of a local osmotic gradient (Delta pi) estimated at 16 +/- 2 mOsm. In short-term experiments, a rapid depolarization from -100 to 0 mV in the presence of alpha MG decreased the cotransport current by 94% but failed to produce a comparable reduction in the swelling rate. A mathematical model depicting the intracellular accumulation of transported osmolytes can accurately account for these observations. It is concluded that, in SGLT1-expressing oocytes, alpha MG-dependent water influx is induced by a local osmotic gradient by using both endogenous and SGLT1-dependent water permeability.
