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

Voltage-dependent inactivation (VDI) was studied through its effects on the voltage sensor in Ca(v)1.2 channels expressed in tsA 201 cells. Two kinetically distinct phases of VDI in onset and recovery suggest the presence of dual VDI processes. Upon increasing duration of conditioning depolarizations, the half-distribution potential (V(1/2)) of intramembranous mobile charge was negatively shifted as a sum of two exponential terms, with time constants 0.5 s and 4 s, and relative amplitudes near 50% each. This kinetics behavior was consistent with that of increment of maximal charge related to inactivation (Qn). Recovery from inactivation was also accompanied by a reduction of Qn that varied with recovery time as a sum of two exponentials. The amplitudes of corresponding exponential terms were strongly correlated in onset and recovery, indicating that channels recover rapidly from fast VDI and slowly from slow VDI. Similar to charge "immobilization," the charge moved in the repolarization (OFF) transient became slower during onset of fast VDI. Slow VDI had, instead, hallmarks of interconversion of charge. Confirming the mechanistic duality, fast VDI virtually disappeared when Li(+) carried the current. A nine-state model with parallel fast and slow inactivation pathways from the open state reproduces most of the observations.
