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

1. Miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mIPSCs) were recorded in mouse Purkinje cells in the presence of 1 micro M tetrodotoxin (TTX). Under these conditions, which eliminated Ca(2+) influx through voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels (VDCCs), the contribution of Ca(2+) stores to spontaneous GABA release was examined. 2. The plant alkaloid ryanodine acts as an inhibitor of endoplasmic reticulum ryanodine-sensitive Ca(2+) release channels (ryanodine receptors) at low micromolar concentrations. Ryanodine effects were confined to a subpopulation of cells tested. At 10 micro M ryanodine, 4/12 cells showed a significant increase in mean mIPSC frequency of +19.6+/-4.0% (n=4). 3. The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) pump inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) produced a more robust effect. In 8/10 cells, 25 micro M CPA caused a significant increase in mean mIPSC frequency; the mean increase being +26.0+/-3.0% (n=8). Similar results were seen with thapsigargin (1-2 micro M), another SERCA pump inhibitor. 4. Ruthenium red (RuR) has been proposed to either act directly on the release machinery or block Ca(2+) pumps on internal stores. At 10 micro M RuR, all cells showed a rapid, large increase in mean mIPSC frequency of +90.4+/-16.4% (n=9). This increase was greater than that seen by agents known to modulate Ca(2+) stores and was more consistent with a direct action. At this concentration, RuR also occluded the effects of CPA. 5. For all reagents, there were no obvious effects on mean mIPSC amplitude. However, the effects on mIPSC frequency were consistent with a presynaptic action and indicate that Ca(2+) stores may contribute to spontaneous GABA release onto mouse Purkinje cells.
