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. Calcium transients were measured in fast-twitch rat skeletal muscle fibres stretched to 3.7-4.0 microns per sarcomere, and voltage clamped at a holding potential of -80 mV using the double-seal Vaseline gap technique. Resting calcium was monitored with fura-2 and the calcium transients were measured with antipyrylazo III. The rate of release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum was calculated from the calcium transient records. The temperature was 14-17 degrees C. 2. The steady-state calcium dependence of inactivation of release was studied with a two-pulse protocol in which 200 ms prepulses of different amplitudes elevated the internal calcium concentration to various levels. The inactivation of release was then measured in the test pulse that followed the prepulses. The calcium concentration at which the inactivation of release are half-maximal was approximately 0.22 microM, the average number of bound calcium ions needed to cause inactivation was about three per release channel and the amount of release that could be inactivated was, on average, 2.48 times the steady level of release during the test pulses. 3. Procaine (0.3mM) reversibly decreased the amplitude and the rate of rise of the calcium transient. Both the peak and the steady level of release were decreased by about 50%. The shape of the release waveform was not modified.
