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

Surface-patterned platinum microelectrodes insulated with 300 nm thick fused silica were fabricated using contact photolithography. These electrodes exhibit low noise and were used for monitoring single vesicle exocytosis from chromaffin cells by constant potential amperometry as well as fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. Amperometric spike parameters were consistent with those obtained with conventional carbon fiber electrodes. Catecholamine voltammograms acquired with platinum electrodes exhibited redox peaks with full width at half-maximum of approximately 45 mV, much sharper than those of carbon fiber electrode recordings. The time course of voltammetrically measured release events was similar for platinum and carbon fiber electrodes. The fused-silica-insulated platinum electrodes could be cleaned and reused repetitively and allowed incorporation of micrometer precision surface-patterned poly-D-lysine. Poly-D-lysine-functionalized devices were applied to stimulate mast cells and record single release events without serotonin preloading. Microfabricated platinum electrodes are thus able to record single exocytotic events with high resolution and should be suitable for highly parallel electrode arrays allowing simultaneous measurements of single events from multiple cells.
