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

T-type calcium channels (T-channels/CaV3) have unique biophysical properties allowing a calcium influx at resting membrane potential of most cells. T-channels are ubiquitously expressed in many tissues and contribute to low-threshold spikes and burst firing in central neurons as well as to pacemaker activities in cardiac cells. They also emerged as potential targets to treat cancer and hypertension. Regulation of these channels appears complex, and several studies have indicated that CaV3.1, CaV3.2, and CaV3.3 currents are directly inhibited by multiple endogenous lipids independently of membrane receptors or intracellular pathways. These bioactive lipids include arachidonic acid and ω3 poly-unsaturated fatty acids; the endocannabinoid anandamide and other N-acylethanolamides; the lipoamino-acids and lipo-neurotransmitters; the P450 epoxygenase metabolite 5,6-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid; as well as similar molecules with 18-22 carbons in the alkyl chain. In this review, we summarize evidence for direct effects of these signaling molecules, the molecular mechanisms underlying the current inhibition, and the involved chemical features. The impact of this modulation in physiology and pathophysiology is discussed with a special emphasis on pain aspects and vasodilation. Overall, these data clearly indicate that T-current inhibition is an important mechanism by which bioactive lipids mediate their physiological functions.
