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

1. The use of molecular biology in combination with electrophysiology in the HEK-293 cell line has given fascinating insights into neuronal ion channel function. Nevertheless, to fully understand the properties of channels exogenously expressed in these cells, a detailed evaluation of endogenous channels is indispensable. 2. Previous studies have shown the expression of endogenous voltage-gated K+, Ca2+, and Cl- channels and this predicts that changes in membrane potential will cause intramembrane charge movement, though this gating charge translocation remain undefined. Here, we confirm this prediction by performing patch-clamp experiments to record ionic and gating currents. Our data show that HEK-293 cells express at least two types of K+-selective endogenous channels which sustain the majority of the ionic current, and exclude a significant contribution from Ca2+ and Cl- channels to the whole-cell current. 3. Gating currents were unambiguously resolved after ionic current blockade enabling this first report of intramembrane charge movement in HEK-293 cells arising entirely from endogenous K+ channel activity, and providing valuable information concerning the activation mechanism of voltage-gated K+ channels in these cells.
