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

Inward currents were measured in cultured rat pancreatic islet cells using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Depolarization elicited both transient and more sustained inward currents. The transient current was blocked by external Na removal, TTX or depolarizing holding potentials while the sustained current was blocked by external Ca removal or the addition of Co, Ni or Cd ions to the external solution. Replacing Ca with Ba increased the amplitude of the sustained current and decreased its rate of decay. These results suggest that the transient current was due to the activation of Na channels while the sustained current was mediated by Ca channels. Two characteristics of the data suggested that two Ca currents may contribute to the sustained current. First, a second shoulder, or hump, was observed on the descending limb of the Ca current I-V of many cells, suggesting that they may possess two Ca channels that activate at different voltages. Second, the low and high voltage components of the I-V were differentially suppressed by Cd. Neither of the Ca current components was very sensitive to the Ca channel agonist BAY K 8644. These results were confirmed in HIT cells, another insulin-secreting preparation.
