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 transient receptor potential ankyrin type 1 (TRPA1) channel belongs to the TRP superfamily of ion channels. TRPA1 is a membrane protein with multiple functions able to respond to noxious stimuli, reactive oxygen species, inflammatory cytokines or pungent substances, and it participates in pain signalling, taste, inflammation and various steps of the tumorigenic process. To date, no reports have addressed the expression and function of TRPA1 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells. This work reports the endogenous expression of TRPA1 channels in human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines and provides insights into the function of the TRPA1 protein in the Panc-1 cell line. This study reports that cell lines isolated from PDAC patients had different levels of TRPA1 expression. The channel activity in Panc-1 cells, as assessed with electrophysiological (whole-cell patch clamp) and microfluorimetry methods, showed that non-selective cationic currents were activated by allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) in Panc-1 cells and inhibited by the selective TRPA1 antagonist A-967079. The current elicited by the specific agonist was associated with a robust increase in intracellular Ca
