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

Secretion from neurons and neuroendocrine cells is enhanced by the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in various preparations. We have already reported that transmitter (glutamate) release from Mb1 bipolar cells in the goldfish retina is potentiated by the activation of PKC. However, it is not yet settled whether the potentiation is ascribed to the increase in the pool size of releasable synaptic vesicles or in release probability. In the present study, Ca2+ influx and exocytosis were simultaneously monitored by measuring the presynaptic Ca2+ current and membrane capacitance changes, respectively, in a terminal detached from the bipolar cell. The double pulse protocol was used to estimate separately the changes in the pool size and release probability. The activation of PKC by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) specifically increased the pool size but not the release probability. PKC was activated by PMA even after the Ca2+ influx was blocked by Co2+. In bipolar cells the releasable pool can be divided into two components: one is small and rapidly exhausted, and the other is large and slowly exocytosed. To identify which component is responsible for the increase in the pool size, the effects of PMA and a PKC-specific inhibitor, bisindolylmaleimide I (BIS), on each component were examined. The slow component was selectively increased by PMA and reduced by BIS. Thus, we conclude that the activation of PKC in Mb1 bipolar cells potentiates glutamate release by increasing the pool size of the slow component.
