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

K+-dependent Na+/Ca2+-exchanger isoform 4 (NCXK4) is one of the most broadly expressed members of the NCKX (K+-dependent Na+/Ca2+-exchanger) family. Recent data indicate that NCKX4 plays a critical role in controlling normal Ca2+ signal dynamics in olfactory and other neurons. Synaptic Ca2+ dynamics are modulated by purinergic regulation, mediated by ATP released from synaptic vesicles or from neighbouring glial cells. Previous studies have focused on modulation of Ca2+ entry pathways that initiate signalling. Here we have investigated purinergic regulation of NCKX4, a powerful extrusion pathway that assists in terminating Ca2+ signals. NCKX4 activity was stimulated by ATP through activation of the P2Y receptor signalling pathway. Stimulation required dual activation of PKC (protein kinase C) and CaMKII (Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II). Mutating T312, a putative PKC phosphorylation site on NCKX4, partially prevented purinergic stimulation. These data illustrate how purinergic regulation can shape the dynamics of Ca2+ signalling by activating a signal damping and termination pathway.
