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 effects of sodium and chloride on the properties of the sodium-dependent component of the 'pre-steady-state' currents of rGAT1, a GABA cotransporter of the Na(+)-Cl(-)-dependent family, were studied using heterologous oocyte expression and voltage clamp. Reductions in either extracellular sodium or chloride shifted the charge-voltage (Q-V) and time constant-voltage (tau-V) characteristics of the process towards more negative potentials. The shift induced by sodium (TMA(+), tetramethylammonium substitution) was stronger than that induced by chloride (acetate substitution), and the shift of tau was accompanied by a decrease in its maximum value. Increasing extracellular Ca(2+) did not produce significant shifts in Q-V and tau-V curves. The negative shift of the Q-V curve upon chloride reduction and the decrease in the value of the relaxation time constant, tau, when either sodium or chloride were lowered, contrasted with the prediction of the Hill-Boltzmann interpretation of the process. Analysis of the unidirectional rate constants under different conditions revealed that both sodium and chloride shifted the outward rate more than the inward rate; furthermore, the shifts induced by sodium were larger than those induced by chloride. These observations are qualitatively compatible with the existence of a selective vestibule at the mouth of the transporters, acting similarly to a Donnan system.
