Transient receptor potential channel 6 in human skeletal muscle fibers: Investigation in fresh and conserved tissue samples.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Transient receptor potential channel 6 (TRPC6) channels constitute non-selective cation channels that are localized in the plasmalemma or sarcolemma, and have a leading permeability for the bivalent calcium ion. Animal models indicate an involvement of TRPC6 in malignant hyperthermia. The expression of TRPC6 in the sarcolemma has been demonstrated in the skeletal muscle fibers of mice. The importance of TRPC6 channels for the influx of calcium into the muscle cell has also been established. The presence of TRPC6 in tissues of human skeletal muscle is surmised. In order to confirm the presence of TRPC6 in human skeletal muscle, tissue samples of various skeletal muscles (Musculus deltoideus, pectoralis major, trizeps brachii and rectus femoris) from eight different human donors (n=8; six preserved cadavers and two non-preserved cadavers) were examined using immunohistochemistry. TRPC6 was found in all muscle fibers of all investigated bodies. Appropriate controls yielded the expected results. As demonstrated in animal studies and in studies of human cells, the presented results confirmed the presence of TRPC6 in human skeletal muscle tissue. Thus, TRPC6 is most likely important for calcium homeostasis and the proper function of human muscle fibers and may be a target for treatment in various muscular diseases.
