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

The effect of nickel (Ni) on the generation of plant bioelectrical signals was evaluated in Nitellopsis obtusa, a Characean model organism. Conventional glass-microelectrode technique and K(+)-anaesthesia method in current-clamp and voltage-clamp modes were used for the measurement and analysis of electrical parameters. Ni(2+) treatment rapidly influenced the action potential (AP) parameters namely, excitation threshold, AP peak and duration, membrane potential at various voltages and dynamics of ion currents. We conclude that altered electrical signaling pathway in the test organism constituted the early target for Ni toxicity imposition. The observed Ni interference could be ascribed to disturbed [Ca(2+)]cyt content, impaired Cl(-) and K(+) channels activity resulting in decreased excitability and repolarization rate in generated AP.
