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

Ba(2+) currents through Ca(V)1.2 Ca(2+) channels are typically twice as large as Ca(2+) currents. Replacing Phe-1144 in the pore-loop of domain III with glycine and lysine, and Tyr-1152 with lysine, reduces whole-cell G(Ba)/G(Ca) from 2.2 (wild-type) to 0.95, 1.21, and 0.90, respectively. Whole-cell and single-channel measurements indicate that reductions in G(Ba)/G(Ca) result specifically from a decrease in Ba(2+) conductance and not changes in V(h) or P(O). Half-maximal block of I(Li) is increased by 3.2-, 3.8-, and 1.6-fold in Ca(2+), and 3.8-, 4.2-, and 1.8-fold in Ba(2+) for F1144G, Y1152K, and F1144K, respectively. High affinity interactions of individual divalent cations to the pore are not important for determining G(Ba)/G(Ca), because the fold increases in IC(50) values for Ba(2+) and Ca(2+) are similar. On the contrary, conductance-concentration curves indicate that G(Ba)/G(Ca) is reduced because the interactions of multiple Ba(2+) ions in the mutant pores are altered. The complexity of these interactions is exemplified by the anomalous mole fraction effect, which is flattened for F1144G and FY/GK but accentuated for F1144K. In summary, the physicochemical properties of the amino acid residues at positions 1144 and 1152 are crucial to the pore's ability to distinguish between multiple Ba(2+) ions and Ca(2+) ions.
