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

Intracellular recording of potentials was used in isolated spinal cord segments from the frog Rana ridibunda to compare the inhibitory effects of GABA and glycine on the motoneuron membrane. At equal concentrations, the response (a change in membrane potential) to application of glycine was 1.5-2 times greater than the response to GABA in terms of amplitude, and EC(50) values were 0.75 and 1.57 mM, respectively. The response to simultaneous application of GABA and glycine averaged 79.1 +/- 2.4% (n = 19) of the sum of the individual responses and 130.1 +/- 1.5% (n = 19) of the glycine response (partial occlusion). Preliminary application of glycine decreased the GABA response by 85.3 +/- 0.2% (n = 10), while preapplication of GABA decreased the glycine response by only 52.9 +/- 0.3% (n = 11). The glycine and GABA responses were specifically suppressed by strychnine and bicuculline. These results provide evidence that as in mammals, amphibian motoneurons have both glycine (predominantly) and GABA(A) receptors; they also show that asymmetrical cross inhibition can occur.
