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

Tetrapentylammonium (TPeA) block of rat brain type IIA sodium channel alpha subunit was studied using whole cell patch clamp. Results indicate that TPeA blocks the inactivating brain sodium channel in a potential and use-dependent manner similar to that of the cardiac sodium channel. Removal of inactivation using chloramine-T (CT) unmasks a time-dependent block by TPeA consistent with slow blocking kinetics. On the other hand, no time dependence is observed when inactivation is abolished by modification with veratridine. TPeA does not bind in a potential-dependent fashion to veratridine-modified channels and does not significantly affect gating of veratridine-modified channels suggesting that high affinity binding of TPeA to the brain sodium channel is lost after veratridine modification.
