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

Over the last decade, several cotransport studies have led to the proposal of secondary active transport of water, challenging the dogma that all water transport is passive. The major observation leading to this interpretation was that a Na+ influx failed to reproduce the large and rapid cell swelling induced by Na+/solute cotransport. We have investigated this phenomenon by comparing a Na+/glucose (hSGLT1) induced water flux to water fluxes triggered either by a cationic inward current (using ROMK2 K+ channels) or by a glucose influx (using GLUT2, a passive glucose transporter). These proteins were overexpressed in Xenopus oocytes and assayed through volumetric measurements combined with double-electrode electrophysiology or radioactive uptake measurements. The osmotic gradients driving the observed water fluxes were estimated by comparison with the swelling induced by osmotic shocks of known amplitude. We found that, for equivalent cation or glucose uptakes, the combination of substrate accumulations observed with ROMK2 and GLUT2 are sufficient to provide the osmotic gradient necessary to account for a passive water flux through SGLT1. Despite the fact that the Na+/glucose stoichiometry of SGLT1 is 2:1, glucose accumulation accounts for two-thirds of the osmotic gradient responsible for the water flux observed at t = 30 s. It is concluded that the different accumulation processes for neutral versus charged solutes can quantitatively account for the fast water flux associated with Na+/glucose cotransport activation without having to propose the presence of secondary active water transport.
