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

Patch-clamp experiments in the whole-cell mode have been performed in Swiss 3T3 mouse fibroblasts. Depolarizations from negative holding potential (Vh less than -60 mV) gave rise to a rapidly activating, fully inactivating, inward current of few tenths of nA in physiological saline at 35 degrees C. The current persisted when external Na+ was replaced by impermeant TMA+ and disappeared in 0 Ca2+, 1 mM EGTA. The current was reversible blocked by Co2+ and it was slightly reduced when external Ca2+ was substituted by Ba2+. Finally its reversal potential changed with Nernstian slope with increasing external Ca2+ concentrations. It is concluded that these cells possess a voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel.
