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

Under high Ca(2+) load conditions, Ca(2+) concentrations in the extra-mitochondrial and mitochondrial compartments do not display reciprocal dynamics. This is due to a paradoxical increase in the mitochondrial Ca(2+) buffering power as the Ca(2+) load increases. Here we develop and characterize a mechanism of the mitochondrial Ca(2+) sequestration system using an experimental data set from isolated guinea pig cardiac mitochondria. The proposed mechanism elucidates this phenomenon and others in a mathematical framework and is integrated into a previously corroborated model of oxidative phosphorylation including the Na(+)/Ca(2+) cycle. The integrated model reproduces the Ca(2+) dynamics observed in both compartments of the isolated mitochondria respiring on pyruvate after a bolus of CaCl2 followed by ruthenium red and a bolus of NaCl. The model reveals why changes in mitochondrial Ca(2+) concentration of Ca(2+) loaded mitochondria appear significantly mitigated relative to the corresponding extra-mitochondrial Ca(2+) concentration changes after Ca(2+) efflux is initiated. The integrated model was corroborated by simulating the set-point phenomenon. The computational results support the conclusion that the Ca(2+) sequestration system is composed of at least two classes of Ca(2+) buffers. The first class represents prototypical Ca(2+) buffering, and the second class encompasses the complex binding events associated with the formation of amorphous calcium phosphate. With the Ca(2+) sequestration system in mitochondria more precisely defined, computer simulations can aid in the development of innovative therapeutics aimed at addressing the myriad of complications that arise due to mitochondrial Ca(2+) overload.
