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

Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is metabolized from a membrane phospholipid and modulates a variety of channels in the plasma membrane (PM). We examined LPC modulation of cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) using the planar lipid bilayer method to measure the single-channel currents. Micromolar concentrations of LPC increased the open probability of the reconstituted RyR channels irrespective of whether LPC was added to the cis or trans chamber. LPC also increased the membrane capacitance of the bilayer. The effects of LPC contrasted well with those of sphingosylphosphorylcholine (SPC). Taken together, these results suggest that amphipathic lipid LPC does not bind directly to the RyR channel protein, but rather, is incorporated into the bilayer membrane and activates the channel. Thus, we consider cell membrane-derived LPC to be a putative endogenous mediator that activates not only plasma membrane channels but also RyR channels and induces arrhythmogenic Ca(2+) mobilization in cardiomyocytes.
