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

Stargazin or [gamma]2, the product of the gene mutated in the stargazer mouse, is a homologue of the [gamma]1 protein, an accessory subunit of the skeletal muscle L-type Ca2+ channel. [gamma]2 is selectively expressed in the brain, and considered to be a putative neuronal Ca2+ channel subunit based mainly on homology to [gamma]1. Two new members of the [gamma] family expressed in the brain have recently been identified: [gamma]3 and [gamma]4. We have co-expressed, in Xenopus oocytes, the human [gamma]2, [gamma]3 and [gamma]4 subunits with the P/Q-type (Ca(V)2.1) Ca2+ channel and different regulatory subunits ([alpha]2-[delta]; [beta]1, [beta]2, [beta]3 or [beta]4). Subcellular distribution of the [gamma] subunits confirmed their membrane localization. Ba2+ currents, recorded using two-electrode voltage clamp, showed that the effects of the [gamma] subunits on the electrophysiological properties of the channel are, most of the time, minor. However, a fraction of the oocytes expressing [beta] subunits displayed an unusual slow-inactivating Ba2+ current. Expression of both [beta] and [gamma] subunits increased the appearance of the slow-inactivating current. Our data support a role for the [gamma] subunit as a brain Ca2+ channel modulatory subunit and suggest that [beta] and [gamma] subunits are involved in a switch between two regulatory modes of the P/Q-type channel inactivation.
