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

Although acute and chronic vasoregulation is inherently driven by endothelial Ca(2+), control and targeting of Ca(2+)-dependent signals are poorly understood. Recent studies have revealed localized and dynamic endothelial Ca(2+) events comprising an intricate signaling network along the vascular intima. Discrete Ca(2+) transients emerging from both internal stores and plasmalemmal cation channels couple to specific membrane K(+) channels, promoting endothelial hyperpolarization and vasodilation. The spatiotemporal tuning of these signals, rather than global Ca(2+) elevation, appear to direct endothelial functions under physiologic conditions. In fact, altered patterns of dynamic Ca(2+) signaling may underlie essential endothelial dysfunction in a variety of cardiovascular diseases. Advances in imaging approaches and analyses in recent years have allowed for detailed detection, quantification, and evaluation of Ca(2+) dynamics in intact endothelium. Here, we discuss recent insights into these signals, including their sources of origination and their functional encoding. We also address key aspects of data acquisition and interpretation, including broad applications of automated high-content analysis.
