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

Native Ca(V)1.3 channels within cochlear hair cells exhibit a surprising lack of Ca2+-dependent inactivation (CDI), given that heterologously expressed Ca(V)1.3 channels show marked CDI. To determine whether alternative splicing at the C terminus of the Ca(V)1.3 gene may produce a hair cell splice variant with weak CDI, we transcript-scanned mRNA obtained from rat cochlea. We found that the alternate use of exon 41 acceptor sites generated a splice variant that lost the calmodulin-binding IQ motif of the C terminus. These Ca(V)1.3(IQdelta) ("IQ deleted") channels exhibited a lack of CDI, which was independent of the type of coexpressed beta-subunits. Ca(V)1.3(IQdelta) channel immunoreactivity was preferentially localized to cochlear outer hair cells (OHCs), whereas that of Ca(V)1.3(IQfull) channels (IQ-possessing) labeled inner hair cells (IHCs). The preferential expression of Ca(V)1.3(IQdelta) within OHCs suggests that these channels may play a role in processes such as electromotility or activity-dependent gene transcription rather than neurotransmitter release, which is performed predominantly by IHCs in the cochlea.
