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

1. The pharmacological and biophysical properties of a recombinant 5-HT3 receptor have been studied by use of patch-clamp techniques applied to HEK 293 cells stably transfected with the murine 5-HT3 R-A cDNA. 2. At a holding potential of -60 mV, 77% of cells investigated responded to ionophoretically applied 5-HT with an inward current. Such currents were unaffected by methysergide (1 microM), or ketanserin (1 microM), but were antagonized in a concentration-dependent and reversible manner by the selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, ondansetron (IC50 = 440 pM) and the non-selective antagonists (+)-tubocurarine (IC50 = 1.8 nM) and metoclopramide (IC50 50 nM). 3. The 5-HT-induced current reversed in sign (E5-HT) at approximately -2mV and exhibited inward rectification. The influence of extra- and intracellular ion substitutions upon E5-HT indicates the 5-HT-evoked current to be mainly mediated by a mixed monovalent cation conductance. 4. Calcium and magnesium (0.1-10 nM) produced a concentration-dependent, voltage-independent, inhibition of the 5-HT-induced response. Zinc (0.3-300 microM) exerted a biphasic effect with low concentrations enhancing, and high concentrations depressing, the 5-HT-evoked current. 5. Fluctuation analysis of inward currents evoked by a low (1 microM) concentration of 5-HT suggests the current to be mediated by the opening of channels with a conductance of 420 fS. 6. The pharmacological and biophysical properties of the 5-HT3 R-A are similar to those previously described for 5-HT3 receptors native to murine neuroblastoma cell lines, with the exception that the function of the recombinant receptor was enhanced by low concentrations of zinc. This observation suggests that the properties of the native receptor are not completely represented by the 5-HT3 R-A subunit alone.
