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

The mitochondrial ATP-dependent K(+) channel (mitoK(ATP)) is widely considered by many to play a central role in cardioprotection by ischemic and pharmacological preconditioning and by ischemic postconditioning. Nevertheless, several laboratories have questioned the existence of mitoK(ATP). This article summarizes the evidence for and against and addresses two key questions: How strong is the evidence for the presence of a K(ATP) channel in mitochondria? Are the pharmacological agents used to modulate mitoK(ATP) activity sufficiently specific to allow the role of these channels in cardioprotection to be established?
