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

aimTo determine the presence of voltage-gated K(+) (Kv) channels in bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and their impact on differentiation of hMSCs into adipocytes.

methodsFor adipogenic differentiation, hMSCs were cultured in adipogenic medium for 22 d. The degrees of adipogenic differentiation were examined using Western blot, Oil Red O staining and Alamar assay. The expression levels of Kv channel subunits Kv1.1, Kv1.2, Kv1.3, Kv1.4, Kv2.1, Kv3.1, Kv3.3, Kv4.2, Kv4.3, and Kv9.3 in the cells were detected using RT-PCR and Western blot analysis.

resultsThe expression levels of Kv2.1 and Kv3.3 subunits were markedly increased on d 16 and 22. In contrast, the expression levels of other Kv channel subunits, including Kv1.1, Kv1.2, Kv1.3, Kv1.4, Kv4.2, Kv4.3, and Kv9.3, were decreased as undifferentiated hMSCs differentiated into adipocytes. Addition of the Kv channel blocker tetraethylammonium (TEA, 10 mmol/L) into the adipogenic medium for 6 or 12 d caused a significant decrease, although not complete, in lipid droplet formation and adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein 2 (aP(2)) expressions. Addition of the selective Kv2.1 channel blocker guangxitoxin (GxTX-1, 40 nmol/L) into the adipogenic medium for 21 d also suppressed adipogenic differentiation of the cells.

conclusionThe results demonstrate that subsets of Kv channels including Kv2.1 and Kv3.3 may play an important role in the differentiation of hMSCs into adipocytes.
