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

Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a recently discovered membrane-spanning protein thought to sense lumenal Ca(2+) in sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum (SR/ER) and transduce activation of Ca(2+)-permeable store-operated channels (SOC) in plasmalemma in response to SR/ER Ca(2+) depletion. To evaluate the role of STIM1 and a closely related protein, STIM2, in Ca(2+) signaling of rat distal pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) during hypoxia, we used fluorescent microscopy and the Ca(2+)-sensitive dye, fura 2, to measure basal intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)), store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE), and increases in [Ca(2+)](i) caused by acute hypoxia (4% O(2)) or depolarization (60 mmol/l KCl) in cells treated with small interfering RNA targeted to STIM1 (siSTIM1) or STIM2 (siSTIM2). As determined by real-time quantitative PCR analysis (qPCR), STIM1 mRNA was 200-fold more abundant than STIM2 in untreated control PASMC. siSTIM1 and siSTIM2 caused specific and significant knockdown of both mRNA measured by qPCR and protein measured by Western blotting. siSTIM1 markedly inhibited SOCE and abolished the sustained [Ca(2+)](i) response to hypoxia but did not alter the initial transient [Ca(2+)](i) response to hypoxia, the [Ca(2+)](i) response to depolarization, or basal [Ca(2+)](i). The only effect of siSTIM2 was a smaller inhibition of SOCE. We conclude that STIM1 was quantitatively more important than STIM2 in activation of SOC in rat distal PASMC and that the increase in [Ca(2+)](i) induced by acute hypoxia in these cells required SR Ca(2+) release and STIM1-dependent activation of SOC.
