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.
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
Presynaptic elements of axons, in which action potentials (APs) cause release of neurotransmitter, are sites of high densities and complex interactions of proteins. We report that the presence of K(v)3 channels in addition to K(v)1 at glutamatergic mossy fiber boutons (MFBs) in rat hippocampal slices considerably limits the number of fast, voltage-activated potassium channels necessary to achieve basal presynaptic AP repolarization. The ∼ 10-fold higher repolarization efficacy per K(v)3 channel compared with presynaptic K(v)1 results from a higher steady-state availability at rest, a better recruitment by the presynaptic AP as a result of faster activation kinetics, and a larger single-channel conductance. Large-conductance calcium- and voltage-activated potassium channels (BK(Ca)) at MFBs give rise to a fast activating/fast inactivating and a slowly activating/sustained K(+) current component during long depolarizations. However, BK(Ca) contribute to MFB-AP repolarization only after presynaptic K(v)3 have been disabled. The calcium chelators EGTA and BAPTA are equally effective in preventing BK(Ca) activation, suggesting that BK(Ca) are not organized in nanodomain complexes with presynaptic voltage-gated calcium channels. Thus, the functional properties of K(v)3 channels at MFBs are tuned to both promote brevity of presynaptic APs limiting glutamate release and at the same time keep surface protein density of potassium channels low. Presynaptic BK(Ca) channels are restricted to limit additional increases of the AP half-duration in case of K(v)3 hypofunction, because rapid membrane repolarization by K(v)3 combined with distant calcium sources prevent BK(Ca) activation during basal APs.
