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

Recent whole-cell electrophysiological data concerning the properties of the Ca2+ currents in mouse beta-cells are fitted by a two-current model of Ca2+ channel kinetics. When the beta-cell K+ currents are added to this model, only large modifications of the measured Ca2+ currents will reproduce the bursting pattern normally observed in mouse islets. However, when the measured Ca2+ currents are modified only slightly and used in conjunction with a K+ conductance that can be modulated dynamically by ATP concentration, reasonable bursting is obtained. Under these conditions it is the K-ATP conductance, rather than the slow voltage inactivation of the Ca2+ current, that determines the interburst interval. We find that this latter model can be reconciled with experiments that limit the possible periodic variation of the K-ATP conductance and with recent observations of intracellular Ca2+ bursting in islets.
