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

Missense mutations of the human skeletal muscle voltage-gated Na+ channel (hSkM1) cause a variety of neuromuscular disorders. The mutation R1448H results in paramyotonia congenita and causes cold-induced myotonia with subsequent paralysis. The mutation M1360V causes an overlapping syndrome with both K+-induced muscle weakness and cold-induced myotonia. The molecular mechanisms of the temperature dependence of these disorders are not well understood. Therefore we investigated physiological parameters of these Na+ channel mutations at different temperatures. Channel proteins were recombinantly expressed in human embryonic kidney cells and studied electrophysiologically, using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. We compared the wild-type (WT) channel with both mutants at different temperatures. Both mutations had slower inactivation and faster recovery from inactivation compared to WT channels. This effect was more pronounced at the R1448H mutation, leading to a larger depolarization of the cell membrane causing myotonia and paralysis. The voltage dependence of activation of R1448H was shifted to more negative membrane potentials at lower temperature but not at the M1360V mutation or in the WT. The window current by mutation R1448H was increased at lower temperatures. The results of this study may explain the stronger cold-induced clinical symptoms resulting from the R1448H mutation in contrast to the M1360V mutation.
