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 present study investigated mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake and release in intact living skeletal muscle fibres subjected to bouts of repetitive activity. Confocal microscopy was used in conjunction with the Ca2+-sensitive dye Rhod-2 to monitor changes in mitochondrial Ca2+ in single Xenopus or mouse muscle fibres. A marked increase in the mitochondrial Ca2+ occurred in Xenopus fibres after 10 tetani applied at 4 s intervals. The mitochondrial Ca2+ continued to increase with increasing number of tetani. After the end of tetanic stimulation, mitochondrial Ca2+ declined to 50% of the maximal increase within 10 min and thereafter took up to 60 min to return to its original value. Depolarization of the mitochondria with FCCP greatly attenuated the rise in the mitochondrial Ca2+ evoked by repetitive tetanic stimulation. In addition, FCCP slowed the rate of decay of the tetanic Ca2+ transient which in turn led to an elevation of resting cytosolic Ca2+. Accumulation of Ca2+ in the mitochondria was accompanied by a modest mitochondrial depolarization. In contrast to the situation in Xenopus fibres, mitochondria in mouse toe muscle fibres did not show any change in the mitochondrial Ca2+ during repetitive stimulation and FCCP had no effect on the rate of decay of the tetanic Ca2+ transient. It is concluded that in Xenopus fibres, mitochondria play a role in the regulation of cytosolic Ca2+ and contribute to the relaxation of tetanic Ca2+ transients. In contrast to their important role in Xenopus fibres, mitochondria in mouse fast-twitch skeletal fibres play little role in Ca2+ homeostasis.
