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 ultrastructural localization of endogenous calcium in the retina of adult cichlid fish Oreochromis mossambicus (Teleostei) was studied using the cytochemical osmiate-bichromate method of Probst (1986). The specificity of this method for calcium localization was proven by means of EGTA treatment of ultrathin sections and electron-spectroscopic-imaging technique (ESI) with an energy-filtering transmission electron microscope (CEM 902, Zeiss). Large amounts of electron-dense calcium containing deposits were found in the outer segments of rods, in the synaptic vesicles of receptor terminals and bipolar cells, in the perinuclear space of photoreceptors and in the endoplasmic reticulum of different cell types, especially in the inner segment and fibres of photoreceptor cells. In the inner plexiform layer calcium was detected in the extracellular space with greater accumulations in the synaptic cleft. Principal differences in the localization of calcium between rods and cones and between several types of synapses and vesicles are shown. The possible role of calcium in the subcellular structures of retinal cells is discussed.
