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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to identify the mechanism responsible for an increase in miniature endplate potentials (MEPPs) amplitude, induced by ryanodine as an agonist of ryanodine receptors in mouse motor nerve terminals.

methodsUsing intracellular microelectrode recordings of MEPPs and evoked endplate potentials (EPPs), the changes in spontaneous and evoked acetylcholine release in motor synapses of mouse diaphragm neuromuscular preparations were studied.

resultsRyanodine (0.1 μM) increased both the amplitudes of MEPPs and EPPs to a similar extent (up to 130% compared to control). The ryanodine effect was prevented by blockage of receptors of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) by a truncated peptide CGRP

conclusionsWe propose that the activity of presynaptic CaMKII is necessary for the ryanodine-stimulated release of endogenous CGRP from motor nerve terminals, but CaMKII does not participate in signaling downstream the activation of CGRP-receptors followed by quantal size increase.
