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

In the luminal membrane of rat cortical collecting duct (CCD) a big Ca(2+)-dependent and a small Ca(2+)-independent K+ channel have been described. Whereas the latter most likely is responsible for the K+ secretion in this nephron segment, the function of the large-conductance K+ channel is unknown. The regulation of this channel and its possible physiological role were examined with the conventional cell-free and the cell-attached nystatin patch-clamp techniques. Patch-clamp recordings were obtained from the luminal membrane of isolated perfused CCD segments and from freshly isolated CCD cells. Intracellular calcium was measured using the calcium-sensitive dye fura-2. The large-conductance K+ channel was strongly voltage- and calcium-dependent. At 3 mumol/l cytosolic Ca2+ activity it was half-maximally activated. At 1 mmol/l it was neither regulated by cytosolic pH nor by ATP. At 1 mumol/l Ca2+ activity the open probability (Po) of this channel was pH-dependent. At pH 7.0 Po was decreased to 4 +/- 2% (n = 9) and at pH 8.5 it was increased to 425 +/- 52% (n = 9) of the control. At this low Ca2+ activity the Po of the channel was reduced by 1 mmol/l ATP to 8 +/- 4% (n = 6). Cell swelling activated the large-conductance K+ channel (n = 14) and hyperpolarized the membrane potential of the cells by 9 +/- 1 mV (n = 23). Intracellular Ca2+ activity increased after hypotonic stress. This increase depended on the extracellular Ca2+ activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
