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

At the immature calyx of Held, the fast decay phase of a Ca(2+) transient induced by tetanic stimulation (TS) was followed by a period of elevated [Ca(2+)](i) for tens of seconds, referred to as posttetanic residual calcium (Ca(res)). We investigated the source of Ca(res) and its contribution to posttetanic potentiation (PTP). After TS (100 Hz for 4 s), posttetanic Ca(res) at the calyx of Held was largely abolished by tetraphenylphosphonium (TPP(+)) or Ru360, which inhibit mitochondrial Na(+)-dependent Ca(2+) efflux and Ca(2+) uniporter, respectively. Whereas the control PTP lasted longer than Ca(res), inhibition of Ca(res) by TPP(+) resulted in preferential suppression of the early phase of PTP, the decay time course of which well matched with that of Ca(res). TS induced significant increases in release probability (P(r)) and the size of the readily releasable pool (RRP), which were estimated from plots of cumulative EPSC amplitudes. TPP(+) or Ru360 suppressed the posttetanic increase in P(r), whereas it had little effect on the increase in RRP size. Moreover, the posttetanic increase in P(r), but not in RRP size, showed a linear correlation with the amount of Ca(res). In contrast, myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) inhibitors and blebbistatin reduced the posttetanic increase in RRP size with no effect on the increase in P(r). Application of TPP(+) in the presence of MLCK inhibitor peptide caused further suppression of PTP. These findings suggest that Ca(res) released from mitochondria and activation of MLCK are primarily responsible for the increase in P(r) and that in the RRP size, respectively.
