Aluminofluoride activates hyperpolarization- and stretch-activated cationic channels in single smooth muscle cells.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 1993. 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
Aluminofluoride (AF) has a variety of biological actions such as activation of GTP binding proteins and inhibition of phosphatases. In the present study, the effects of AF on hyper-polarization- and stretch-activated cationic channels (HA-SACs) were investigated in isolated gastric smooth muscle cells from the toad, Bufo marinus, using the patch-clamp technique. In cell-attached patches extracellular application of AF (20 mM KF plus 20 microM AlCl3) reversibly increased HA-SAC activity without changing its voltage sensitivity. The single channel current amplitude of HA-SACs was not affected during this procedure. The mechanism of AF-induced activation of HA-SACs remains unclear. However, this activation may play a role in contraction of smooth muscle induced by AF.
