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

The SLC4 family consists of ten genes. All appear to encode integral membrane proteins with very similar hydropathy plots-consistent with the presence of 10-14 transmembrane segments. At least eight SLC4 members encode proteins that transport HCO(3)(-) (or a related species, such as CO(3)(2-)) across the plasma membrane. Functionally, these eight proteins fall into two major groups: three Cl-HCO(3) exchangers (AE1-3) and five Na(+)-coupled HCO(3)(-) transporters (NBCe1, NBCe2, NBCn1, NDCBE, NCBE). Two of the Na(+)-coupled HCO(3)(- )transporters (NBCe1, NBCe2) are electrogenic; the other three Na(+)-coupled HCO(3)(-) transporters and all three AEs are electroneutral. At least NDCBE transports Cl(-) in addition to Na(+) and HCO(3)(-). Whether NCBE transports Cl(-)-in addition to Na(+) and HCO(3)(-)-is unsettled. In addition, two other SLC4 members (AE4 and BTR1) do not yet have a firmly established function; on the basis of homology, they fall between the two major groups. A characteristic of many, though not all, SLC4 members is inhibition by 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (DIDS). SLC4 gene products play important roles in the carriage of CO(2) by erythrocytes, the absorption or secretion of H(+) or HCO(3)(-) by several epithelia, as well as the regulation of cell volume and intracellular pH.
