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

Excitability-a threshold-governed transient in transmembrane voltage-is a fundamental physiological process that controls the function of the heart, endocrine, muscles, and neuronal tissues. The 1950s Hodgkin and Huxley explicit formulation provides a mathematical framework for understanding excitability, as the consequence of the properties of voltage-gated sodium and potassium channels. The Hodgkin-Huxley model is more sensitive to parametric variations of protein densities and kinetics than biological systems whose excitability is apparently more robust. It is generally assumed that the model's sensitivity reflects missing functional relations between its parameters or other components present in biological systems. Here we experimentally assembled excitable membranes using the dynamic clamp and voltage-gated potassium ionic channels (Kv1.3) expressed in
