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

We show that lobster olfactory receptor neurons (ORNs), much like their vertebrate counterparts, generate a transient elevation of intracellular calcium (Ca(i)) in response to odorant activation that can be used to monitor ensemble ORN activity. This is done in antennal slice preparation in situ maintaining the polarity of the cells and the normal micro-environment of the olfactory cilia. The Ca(i) signal is ligand-specific and increases in a dose-dependent manner in response to odorant stimulation. Saturating stimulation elicits a robust increase of up to 1 μM free Ca(i) within 1-2s of stimulation. The odor-induced Ca(i) response closely follows the discharge pattern of extracellular spikes elicited by odorant application, with the maximal rise in Ca(i) matching the peak of the spike generation. The Ca(i) signal can be used to track neuronal activity in a functional subpopulation of rhythmically active ORNs and discriminate it from that of neighboring tonically active ORNs. Being able to record from many ORNs simultaneously over an extended period of time not only allows more accurate estimates of neuronal population activity but also dramatically improves the ability to identify potential new functional subpopulations of ORNs, especially those with more subtle differences in responsiveness, ligand specificity, and/or transduction mechanisms.
