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

Calcium waves in layer 2/3 and layer 5 neocortical somatosensory pyramidal neurons were examined in slices from 2- to 8-week-old rats. Repetitive synaptic stimulation evoked a delayed, all-or-none [Ca2+]i increase primarily on the main dendritic shaft. This component was blocked by 1 mM (R,S)-alpha-methyl-4-carboxyphenylglycine (MCPG), 10 microM ryanodine, 1 mg ml-1 internal heparin, and was not blocked by 400 microM internal Ruthenium Red, indicating that it was due to Ca2+ release from internal stores by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) mobilized via activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors. Calcium waves were initiated on the apical shaft at sites between the soma to around the main branch point, mostly at insertion points of oblique dendrites, and spread in both directions along the shaft. In the proximal dendrites the peak amplitude of the resulting [Ca2+]i change was much larger than that evoked by a train of Na+ spikes. In distal dendrites the peak amplitude was comparable to the [Ca2+]i change due to a Ca2+ spike. IP3-mediated Ca2+ release also was observed in the presence of the metabotropic agonists t-ACPD and carbachol when backpropagating spikes were generated. Ca2+ entry through NMDA receptors was observed primarily on the oblique dendrites. The main differences between waves in neocortical neurons and in previously described hippocampal pyramidal neurons were, (a) Ca2+ waves in L5 neurons could be evoked further out along the main shaft, (b) Ca2+ waves extended slightly further out into the oblique dendrites and (c) higher concentrations of bath-applied t-ACPD and carbachol were required to generate Ca2+ release events by backpropagating action potentials.
