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

Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) provide pacemaker activity in some smooth muscles. The nature of the pacemaker conductance is unclear, but studies suggest that pacemaker activity is due to a voltage-independent, Ca(2+)-regulated, non-selective cation conductance. We investigated Ca(2+)-regulated conductances in murine intestinal ICC and found that reducing cytoplasmic Ca(2+) activates whole-cell inward currents and single-channel currents. Both the whole-cell currents and single-channel currents reversed at 0 mV when the equilibrium potentials of all ions present were far from 0 mV. Recordings from on-cell patches revealed oscillations in unitary currents at the frequency of pacemaker currents in ICC. Voltage-clamping cells to -60 mV did not change the oscillatory activity of channels in on-cell patches. Depolarizing cells with high external K(+) caused loss of resolvable single-channel currents, but the oscillatory single-channel currents were restored when the patches were stepped to negative potentials. Unitary currents were also resolved in excised patches. The single-channel conductance was 13 pS, and currents reversed at 0 mV. The channels responsible were strongly activated by 10(-7) M Ca(2+), and 10(-6) M Ca(2+) reduced activity. The 13 pS channels were strongly activated by the calmodulin inhibitors calmidazolium and W-7 in on-cell and excised patches. Calmidazolium and W-7 also activated a persistent inward current under whole-cell conditions. Murine ICC express Ca(2+)-inhibited, non-selective cation channels that are periodically activated at the same frequency as pacemaker currents. This conductance may contribute to the pacemaker current and generation of electrical slow waves in GI muscles.
