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

GABA release during cerebral energy deprivation (produced by anoxia or ischemia) has been suggested either to be neuroprotective, because GABA will hyperpolarize neurons and reduce release of excitotoxic glutamate, or to be neurotoxic, because activation of GABA(A) receptors facilitates Cl- entry into neurons and consequent cell swelling. We have used the GABA(A) receptors of hippocampal area CA1 pyramidal cells to sense the rise of [GABA](o) occurring in simulated ischemia. Ischemia evoked, after several minutes, a large depolarization to approximately -20 mV. Before this "anoxic depolarization," there was an increase in GABA release by exocytosis (spontaneous IPSCs). After the anoxic depolarization, there was a much larger, sustained release of GABA that was not affected by blocking action potentials, vesicular release, or the glial GABA transporter GAT-3 but was inhibited by blocking the neuronal GABA transporter GAT-1. Blocking GABA(A) receptors resulted in a more positive anoxic depolarization but decreased cell swelling at the time of the anoxic depolarization. The influence of GABA(A) receptors diminished in prolonged ischemia because glutamate release evoked by the anoxic depolarization inhibited GABA(A) receptor function by causing calcium entry through NMDA receptors. These data show that ischemia releases GABA initially by exocytosis and then by reversal of GAT-1 transporters and that the resulting Cl- influx through GABA(A) receptor channels causes potentially neurotoxic cell swelling.
