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

BACKGROUND &

aimsIn human and canine colon, both slow (slow waves, 2-8/min) and fast (myenteric potential oscillations [MPOs]; 16-20/min) electrical rhythms in the smooth muscle originate at the submucosal and myenteric borders, respectively. We used Ca(2+) imaging to investigate whether interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) at these borders generated distinct rhythms.

methodsSegments of canine colon were pinned with submucosal or myenteric surface uppermost or cut in cross section. Tissues were loaded with a Ca(2+) indicator (fluo-4), and activity was monitored at 36.5 +/- 0.5 degrees C using an electron multiplying charge coupled device (EMCCD).

resultsRhythmic, biphasic Ca(2+) transients (5-8/min), similar in waveform to electrical slow waves, propagated without decrement as a wave front (2-5 mm/s) through the ICC-SM network lying along the submucosal surface of the circular muscle (CM). In contrast, rhythmic intracellular Ca(2+) waves (approximately 16/min) and spontaneous reductions in Ca(2+) were observed in ICCs at the myenteric border (ICC-MY). Normally, intracellular Ca(2+) waves were unsynchronized between adjacent ICC-MY, although excitatory nerve activity synchronized activity. In addition, spontaneous reductions in Ca(2+) were observed that inhibited Ca(2+) waves. N omega-nitro-L-arginine (100 micromol/L; nitric oxide antagonist) blocked the reductions in Ca(2+) and increased the frequency (approximately 19/min) of intracellular Ca(2+) waves within ICC-MY.

conclusionsICC-SMs form a tightly coupled network that is able to generate and propagate slow waves. In contrast, Ca(2+) transients in ICC-MYs, which are normally not synchronized, have a similar duration and frequency as MPOs. Like MPOs, their activity is inhibited by nitrergic nerves and synchronized by excitatory nerves.
