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 modification of first-spike latencies by low-threshold and inactivating K+ currents (IA) have important implications in neuronal coding and synaptic integration. To date, cells in which first-spike latency characteristics have been analyzed have shown that increased hyperpolarization results in longer first-spike latencies, producing a monotonic relationship between first-spike latency and membrane voltage. Previous work has established that cerebellar stellate cells express members of the Kv4 potassium channel subfamily, which underlie IA in many central neurons. Spike timing in stellate cells could be particularly important to cerebellar output, because the discharge of even single spikes can significantly delay spike discharge in postsynaptic Purkinje cells. In the present work, we studied the first-spike latency characteristics of stellate cells. We show that first-spike latency is nonmonotonic, such that intermediate levels of prehyperpolarization produce the longest spike latencies, whereas greater hyperpolarization or depolarization reduces spike latency. Moreover, the range of first-spike latency values can be substantial in spanning 20-128 ms with preceding membrane shifts of <10 mV. Using patch clamp and modeling, we illustrate that spike latency characteristics are the product of an interplay between IA and low-threshold calcium current (IT) that requires a steady-state difference in the inactivation parameters of the currents. Furthermore, we show that the unique first-spike latency characteristics of stellate cells have important implications for the integration of coincident IPSPs and EPSPs, such that inhibition can shift first-spike latency to differentially modulate the probability of firing.
