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

Cardiomyocytes have a complex Ca(2+) behavior and changes in this behavior may underlie certain disease states. Intracellular Ca(2+) activity can be regulated by the phospholipase Cβ-Gα(q) pathway localized on the plasma membrane. The plasma membranes of cardiomycoytes are rich in caveolae domains organized by caveolin proteins. Caveolae may indirectly affect cell signals by entrapping and localizing specific proteins. Recently, we found that caveolin may specifically interact with activated Gα(q), which could affect Ca(2+) signals. Here, using fluorescence imaging and correlation techniques we show that Gα(q)-Gβγ subunits localize to caveolae in adult ventricular canine cardiomyoctyes. Carbachol stimulation releases Gβγ subunits from caveolae with a concurrent stabilization of activated Gα(q) by caveolin-3 (Cav3). These cells show oscillating Ca(2+) waves that are not seen in neonatal cells that do not contain Cav3. Microinjection of a peptide that disrupts Cav3-Gα(q) association, but not a control peptide, extinguishes the waves. Furthermore, these waves are unchanged with rynaodine treatment, but not seen with treatment of a phospholipase C inhibitor, implying that Cav3-Gα(q) is responsible for this Ca(2+) activity. Taken together, these studies show that caveolae play a direct and active role in regulating basal Ca(2+) activity in cardiomyocytes.
