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

Ca(2+) release during excitation-contraction (EC) coupling varies across the left ventricular free wall. Here, we investigated the mechanisms underlying EC coupling differences between mouse left ventricular epicardial (Epi) and endocardial (Endo) myocytes. We found that diastolic and systolic [Ca(2+)](i) was higher in paced Endo than in Epi myocytes. Our data indicated that differences in action potential (AP) waveform between Epi and Endo cells only partially accounted for differences in [Ca(2+)](i). Rather, we found that the amplitude of the [Ca(2+)](i) transient, but not its trigger - the Ca(2+) current - was larger in Endo than in Epi cells. We also found that spontaneous Ca(2+) spark activity was about 2.8-fold higher in Endo than in Epi cells. Interestingly, ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) protein expression was nearly 2-fold higher in Endo than in Epi myocytes. Finally, we observed less Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger function in Endo than in Epi cells, which was associated with decreased Ca(2+) efflux during the AP; this contributed to higher diastolic [Ca(2+)](i) and SR Ca(2+) in Endo than in Epi cells during pacing. We propose that transmural differences in AP waveform, SR Ca(2+) release, and Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger function underlie differences in [Ca(2+)](i) and EC coupling across the left ventricular free wall.
