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

In neonatal mice, fast- and slow-type motoneurons display different patterns of discharge. In response to a long liminal current pulse, the discharge is delayed up to several seconds in fast-type motoneurons and their firing frequency accelerates. In contrast, slow-type motoneurons discharge immediately, and their firing frequency decreases at the beginning of the pulse. Here, we identify the ionic currents that underlie the delayed firing of fast-type motoneurons. We find that the firing delay is caused by a combination of an A-like potassium current that transiently suppresses firing on a short time scale and a slowly-inactivating potassium current that inhibits the discharge over a much longer time scale. We then show how these intrinsic currents dynamically shape the discharge threshold and the frequency-input function of fast-type motoneurons. These currents contribute to the orderly recruitment of motoneurons in neonates and might play a role in the postnatal maturation of motor units.
