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

We have studied the effects of protein kinase C (PKC) activators 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (4 beta-PMA) and 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol (OAG) and of phosphatase inhibitors (okadaic acid and calyculin A) on voltage-activated Ca2+ and K+ channels in nerve-growth-factor-(NGF)-differentiated pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells. Whole-cell Ba2+ and K+ currents were recorded at room temperature with the patch-clamp technique. By using omega-conotoxin (CgTX) and isradipine, two specific Ca2+ channel blockers, we found three types of Ba2+ currents (IBa): (1) a omega-CgTX-sensitive IBa; (2) an isradipine-sensitive IBa; and (3) a omega-CgTX plus isradipine-resistant IBa. The external application of 4 beta-PMA or OAG down-modulated the isradipine-sensitive IBa whereas the two other IBa were not affected. 4 beta-PMA-induced inhibition of IBa was prevented by staurosporine (a protein kinase inhibitor) and PKC (19-31) (a specific PKC inhibitor). The delayed rectifier K+ current (IK) was unaffected by PKC activators. Both okadaic acid and calyculin A affected the components of the IBa in different manners. The presence of okadaic acid decreased the isradipine-sensitive IBa more than the omega-CgTX-sensitive IBa. The omega-CgTX plus isradipine-resistant IBa was not affected. Calyculin A down-modulated all three components of IBa to a similar degree. Our results suggest a differential modulation of voltage-activated Ca2+ and K+ channels by the PKC signalling pathway in NGF-differentiated PC12 cells.
