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

Big-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels (BK channels) may play an important role in the regulation of epithelial salt and water transport, but little is known about the expression level and the precise localization of BK channels in epithelia. The aim of the present study was to quantify and localize the BK channels in the distal colon epithelium by iberiotoxin (IbTX) binding using the radiolabeled iberiotoxin analogue (125)I-IbTX-D19Y/Y36F, by autoradiography and by immunohistochemical studies. The results showed that the surface cells, responsible for Na(+) absorption, contained a high number of BK channels, whereas the abundance of the channels in the Cl(-)-secreting crypt cells was very low or absent. Surprisingly, the (125)I-IbTX-D19Y/Y36F binding and immunohistochemical studies showed expression of BK channels in the apical as well as in the basolateral membranes of the surface cells. In conclusion, the significant and distinct expression of BK channels in epithelia, combined with their strict regulation, indicate that these channels may play an important role in the overall regulation of salt and water transport.
