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 release of hormones and neurotransmitters by regulated exocytosis requires the delivery of secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane, where they dock and become primed for fusion with the plasma membrane. Upon stimulation a fusion pore is formed through which cargo molecules diffuse out of the vesicle lumen into the extracellular space. After the cargo release the fusion pore either closes (kiss-and-run, transient exocytosis), fluctuates between an open and a closed state (for short times, fusion pore flickering, or for rather longer periods, 'pulsing pore') or expands irreversibly (full fusion exocytosis). In almost all secretory cells spontaneous secretion of vesicle cargo can be detected in the absence of stimulation. Spontaneous and stimulated exocytosis were thought to exhibit similar properties at elementary level, differing only in the probability of occurrence. However, recent studies indicate that spontaneous exocytosis differs from the stimulated one in many respects, therefore opening questions about the physiological role of spontaneous exocytosis. In this report we address the elementary properties of spontaneous and stimulated peptidergic vesicle discharge which appears to be modulated by fusion pore conductance (diameter) and fusion pore gating.
