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

Hormones and neurotransmitters are released from (neuro)endocrine cells by regulated exocytosis of secretory granules. During exocytosis, the granule membrane fuses with the plasma membrane, which allows release of the stored content into the bloodstream or the surrounding tissue. Here, we give a detailed description of two complementary methods to observe and quantify exocytosis in single cells: high-resolution TIRF microscopy and patch-clamp capacitance recordings. Precise stimulation of exocytosis is achieved by local pressure application or voltage-clamp depolarizations. While the chapter is focused on insulin-secreting cells as an accessible and disease-relevant model system, the methodology is applicable to a wide variety of secretory cells including chromaffin and PC12 cells.
