Effect of actin microfilament on potassium current in guinea pig gastric myocytes.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
aimTo investigate the effect of actin microfilament on potassium current and hyposmotic membrane stretch-induced increase of potassium current in gastric antral circular myocytes of guinea pig.
methodsWhole-cell patch clamp technique was used to record potassium current in isolated gastric myocyes.
resultsWhen the membrane potential was clamped at -60 mV, an actin microfilament disruptor, cytochanlasin-B(Cyt-B, 20 micromol/L in pipette) increased calcium-activated potassium current (I(K(Ca))) and delayed rectifier potassium current (I(K(V))) to 138.4+/-14.3% and 142.1+/-13.1% respectively at +60 mV. In the same condition, an actin microfilament stabilizer phalloidin (20 micromol/L in pipette) inhibited I(K(Ca)) and I(K(V)) to 74.2+/-7.1% and 75.4+/-9.9% respectively. At the holding potential of -60 mV, hyposmotic membrane stretch increased I(K(Ca)) and I(K(V)) by 50.6+/-9.7% and 24.9+/-3.3% at +60 mV respectively. In the presence of cytochalasin-B and phalloidin (20 micromol/L, in the pipette) condition, hyposmotic membrane stretch also increased I(K(Ca)) by 44.5+/-7.9% and 55.7+/-9.8% at +60 mV respectively. In the same condition, cytochalasin-B and phalloidin also increased I(K(V)) by 23.0+/-5.5% and 30.3+/-4.5% respectively. However, Cyt-B and phalloidin did not affect the amplitude of hyposmotic membrane stretch-induced increase of I(K(Ca)) and I(K(V)).
conclusionActin microfilaments regulate the activities of potassium channels, but they are not involved in the process of hyposmotic membrane stretch-induced increase of potassium currents in gastric antral circular myocytes of guinea pig.
