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

Cardiac mitochondria can act as a significant Ca(2+) sink and shape cytosolic Ca(2+) signals affecting various cellular processes, such as energy metabolism and excitation-contraction coupling. However, different mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake mechanisms are still not well understood. In this study, we analysed recently published Ca(2+) uptake experiments performed on isolated guinea pig cardiac mitochondria using a computer model of mitochondrial bioenergetics and cation handling. The model analyses of the data suggest that the majority of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake, at physiological levels of cytosolic Ca(2+) and Mg(2+), occurs through a fast Ca(2+) uptake pathway, which is neither the Ca(2+) uniporter nor the rapid mode of Ca(2+) uptake. This fast Ca(2+) uptake component was explained by including a biophysical model of the ryanodine receptor (RyR) in the computer model. However, the Mg(2+)-dependent enhancement of the RyR adaptation was not evident in this RyR-type channel, in contrast to that of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum RyR. The extended computer model is corroborated by simulating an independent experimental dataset, featuring mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake, egress and sequestration. The model analyses of the two datasets validate the existence of two classes of Ca(2+) buffers that comprise the mitochondrial Ca(2+) sequestration system. The modelling study further indicates that the Ca(2+) buffers respond differentially depending on the source of Ca(2+) uptake. In particular, it suggests that the Class 1 Ca(2+) buffering capacity is auto-regulated by the rate at which Ca(2+) is taken up by mitochondria.
