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

The outer hair cell isolated from the guinea-pig was superfused in vitro and the cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and sodium concentration ([Na+]i) were measured using fluorescence indicators. Under the resting condition, [Ca2+]i and [Na+]i were 91 +/- 9 nM (n = 51) and 110 +/- 5 mM (n = 12), respectively. Removal of external Na+ by replacing with N-methyl-D-glucamine (NMDG+) increased [Ca2+]i by 270 +/- 79% (n = 27) and decreased [Na+]i by 23 +/- 4 mM (n = 6). Both changes in [Ca2+]i and [Na+]i were totally reversible on returning external Na+ to the initial value and were inhibited by addition of 0.1 mM La3+ or 100 microM amiloride 5-(N,N-dimethyl) hydrochloride. Elevation of external Ca2+ ions to 20 mM reversibly decreased [Na+]i by 8 +/- 6 mM (n = 5). Moreover, the chelation of the intracellular Ca2+ with 1,2-bis (2-aminophenoxy) ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) exerted an inhibitory action on the NMDG(+)-induced reduction in [Na+]i. Exposure to 5 mM NaCN for 2 min significantly and reversibly increased [Ca2+]i by 290 +/- 37% (n = 5), but did not affect the [Ca2+]i elevation induced by the NMDG+ solution. The rise in [Ca2+]i induced by the NMDG+ solution was not enhanced by ouabain pretreatment. Addition of ouabain did not alter the [Na+]i. The present results are best explained by the presence of an Na(+)-Ca2+ exchanger in cell membrane and indicate that the activity of Na+/K+ pump is poor in outer hair cells.
