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

A wealth of recent studies has highlighted the diverse and important influences of carbon monoxide (CO) on cellular signaling pathways. Such studies have implicated CO, and the enzymes from which it is derived (heme oxygenases) as potential therapeutic targets, particularly (although not exclusively) in inflammation, immunity and cardiovascular disease.1 In a recent study,2 we demonstrated that CO inhibited cardiac L-type Ca(2+) channels. This effect arose due to the ability of CO to bind to mitochondria (presumably at complex IV of the electron transport chain) and so cause electron leak, which resulted in increased production of reactive oxygen species. These modulated the channel's activity through interactions with three cysteine residues in the cytosolic C-terminus of the channel's major, pore-forming subunit. Our study provided a potential mechanism for the cardioprotective effects of CO and also highlighted ion channels as a major potential target group for this gasotransmitter.
