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

The roles of heterotrimeric GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G-proteins) and inositol polyphosphates in the mechanism by which vasopressin stimulates Ca2+ inflow in hepatocytes were investigated by using single cells loaded with fura2 by microinjection. Vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow was mimicked by microinjection of guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) or guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate to the cells, but not adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (ATP[S]) or guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate (GDP[S]). Extracellular Gd3+ (5 microM) inhibited both vasopressin- and GTP[S]-stimulated Ca2+ inflow. GDP[S], but not GMP, administered to hepatocytes by microinjection, completely inhibited vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow and partially inhibited vasopressin-induced release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. The microinjection of pertussis toxin had no effect either on the release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores or on Ca2+ inflow induced by vasopressin, but completely inhibited changes in these processes induced by epidermal growth factor (EGF). Hepatocytes isolated from rats treated with pertussis toxin for 24 h exhibited no vasopressin- or GTP[S]-stimulated Ca2+ inflow, whereas the vasopressin-stimulated release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores was similar to that observed for control cells. Heparin or ATP[S] inhibited, or delayed the onset of, both vasopressin-induced release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and vasopressin-stimulated Ca2+ inflow. Vasopressin-induced oscillations in intracellular [Ca2+] were observed in some heparin-treated cells. It is concluded that the stimulation by vasopressin of Ca2+ inflow to hepatocytes requires inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) and, by implication, the pertussis-toxin-insensitive G-protein required for the activation of phospholipase C beta [Taylor, Chae, Rhee and Exton (1991) Nature (London) 350, 516-518], and another G-protein which is slowly ADP-ribosylated by pertussis toxin and acts between InsP3 and the putative plasma-membrane Ca2+ channel. EGF-stimulated Ca2+ inflow involves at least one G-protein which is rapidly ADP-ribosylated and is most likely required for InsP3 formation.
