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

In mouse tissues two variants of the transient receptor potential (canonical) (TRPC) 4 protein are expressed: the "full-length" TRPC4 protein and a slightly smaller variant, called TRPC4Delta(761-864), which lacks 84 amino acid residues. Although the presence of mRNA encoding the TRPC4 protein in mammalian cells and the detection of the heterologously expressed TRPC4 protein by Western blot analysis have been reported, the unequivocal detection of endogenous TRPC4 proteins has proven difficult. In the present study we compared polyclonal antibodies for the detection of TRPC4 proteins in mouse tissues and monitored their specificity and reliability by analysing corresponding tissues from TRPC4-deficient mice. In addition we introduced a procedure that allows us to estimate the amount of TRPC4 protein expressed in a single cell. Using this technique it appears that the amount of TRPC4 protein expressed stably in HEK 293 cells is at least fourfold higher than the amount of TRPC4 protein expressed endogenously in the bovine adrenocortical cell line SBAC.
