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

There is current debate about the origin of mechanical amplification whereby outer hair cells generate force to augment the sensitivity and frequency selectivity of the mammalian cochlea. To distinguish contributions to force production from the mechanotransducer (MET) channels and somatic motility, we have measured hair bundle motion during depolarization of individual outer hair cells in isolated rat cochleas. Depolarization evoked rapid positive bundle deflections that were reduced by perfusion with the MET channel blocker dihydrostreptomycin, with no effect on the nonlinear capacitance that is a manifestation of prestin-driven somatic motility. However, the movements were also diminished by Na salicylate and depended on the intracellular anion, properties implying involvement of the prestin motor. Furthermore, depolarization of one outer hair cell caused motion of neighboring hair bundles, indicating overall motion of the reticular lamina. Depolarization of solitary outer hair cells caused cell-length changes whose voltage-activation range depended on the intracellular anion but were insensitive to dihydrostreptomycin. These results imply that both the MET channels and the somatic motor participate in hair bundle motion evoked by depolarization. It is conceivable that the two processes can interact, a signal from the MET channels being capable of modulating the activity of the prestin motor.
