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

Postinhibitory rebound (PIR) is defined as membrane depolarization occurring at the offset of a hyperpolarizing stimulus and is one of several intrinsic properties that may promote rhythmic electrical activity. PIR can be produced by several mechanisms including hyperpolarization-activated cation current (I(h)) or de-inactivation of depolarization-activated inward currents. Excitatory swim motor neurons in the leech exhibit PIR in response to injected current pulses or inhibitory synaptic input. Serotonin, a potent modulator of leech swimming behavior, increases the peak amplitude of PIR and decreases its duration, effects consistent with supporting rhythmic activity. In this study, we performed current clamp experiments on dorsal excitatory cell 3 (DE-3) and ventral excitatory cell 4 (VE-4). We found a significant difference in the shape of PIR responses expressed by these two cell types in normal saline, with DE-3 exhibiting a larger prolonged component. Exposing motor neurons to serotonin eliminated this difference. Cs+ had no effect on PIR, suggesting that I(h) plays no role. PIR was suppressed completely when low Na+ solution was combined with Ca2+-channel blockers. Our data support the hypothesis that PIR in swim motor neurons is produced by a combination of low-threshold Na+ and Ca2+ currents that begin to activate near -60 mV.
