The cytoplasmic domain of rat synaptotagmin I enhances synaptic transmission.

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.
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
Synaptotagmin, an integral membrane protein of synaptic vesicles, functions as a calcium sensor in the temporal control of neurotransmitter release. Although synaptotagmin facilitates lipid membrane fusion in biochemical experiments, overexpression of synaptotagmin inhibits neurotransmission. A facilitatory effect of synaptotagmin on synaptic transmission was never observed. To determine whether synaptotagmin may accelerate synaptic transmission in vivo, we injected the cytoplasmic domain of rat synaptotagmin I (CD-syt) into crayfish motor axons and tested the effect of CD-syt on synaptic response. We confirmed that CD-syt accelerates neuromuscular transmission. The injected preparation had larger synaptic potentials with shorter rise time. Experiments with varying calcium concentrations showed that CD-syt increased the maximum synaptic response of the neuromuscular synapses. Further tests on short-term plasticity of neuromuscular synapses revealed that CD-syt increases the release probability of the release-ready vesicles.
