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

CaV3.1 T-type channels are abundant at the cerebellar synapse between parallel fibers and Purkinje cells where they contribute to synaptic depolarization. So far, no specific physiological function has been attributed to these channels neither as charge carriers nor more specifically as Ca(2+) carriers. Here we analyze their incidence on synaptic plasticity, motor behavior, and cerebellar motor learning, comparing WT animals and mice where T-type channel function has been abolished either by gene deletion or by acute pharmacological blockade. At the cellular level, we show that CaV3.1 channels are required for long-term potentiation at parallel fiber-Purkinje cell synapses. Moreover, basal simple spike discharge of the Purkinje cell in KO mice is modified. Acute or chronic T-type current blockade results in impaired motor performance in particular when a good body balance is required. Because motor behavior integrates reflexes and past memories of learned behavior, this suggests impaired learning. Indeed, subjecting the KO mice to a vestibulo-ocular reflex phase reversal test reveals impaired cerebellum-dependent motor learning. These data identify a role of low-voltage activated calcium channels in synaptic plasticity and establish a role for CaV3.1 channels in cerebellar learning.
