Functional expression of ERG1 potassium channels in rat alveolar macrophages.
Article in Journal of molecular histology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Alveolar macrophages (AMs) play a vital role in lung immunity. The recent studies demonstrated that potassium channels were associated with macrophage functions, such as activation, migration and cytokines secretion. However, less is known regarding the expression and function of ERG channels in AMs. Our study showed that ERG1 channel expressed in rat alveolar macrophage, and the expression level was increased when AMs were stimulated with LPS. Furthermore, blockade of ERG1 channels with E4031 down-regulated the mature of ERG1 protein, inhibited NF-κB translocation into the nucleus, and reduced LPS-stimulated IL-6 and IL-1β secretion. These results imply that ERG1 channels are functionally expressed in rat alveolar macrophages and play an important role in inflammatory response.
