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

Cardiac Ca(2+) transients are enhanced by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). However, PKA-dependent modulation of ryanodine receptor (RyR) function in intact cells is difficult to measure, because PKA simultaneously increases Ca(2+) current (I(Ca)), SR Ca(2+) uptake and SR Ca(2+) loading (which independently increase SR Ca(2+) release). We measured I(Ca) and SR Ca(2+) release +/- 1 microm isoproterenol (ISO; isoprenaline) in voltage-clamped ventricular myocytes of rabbits and transgenic mice (expressing only non-phosphorylatable phospholamban). This mouse model helps control for any effect of ISO-enhanced SR uptake on observed release, but the two species produced essentially identical results. SR Ca(2+) load and I(Ca) were adjusted by conditioning. We thus evaluated PKA effects on SR Ca(2+) release at constant SR Ca(2+) load and I(Ca) trigger (with constant unitary I(Ca)). The amount of SR Ca(2+) release increased as a function of either I(Ca) or SR Ca(2+) load, but ISO did not alter the relationships (measured as gain or fractional release). This was true over a wide range of SR Ca(2+) load and I(Ca). However, the maximal rate of SR Ca(2+) release was approximately 50% faster with ISO (at most loads and I(Ca) levels). We conclude that the isolated effect of PKA on SR Ca(2+) release is an increase in maximal rate of release and faster turn-off of release (such that integrated SR Ca(2+) release is unchanged). The increased amount of SR Ca(2+) release normally seen with ISO depends primarily on increased I(Ca) trigger and SR Ca(2+) load, whereas faster release kinetics may be the main result of RyR phosphorylation.
