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. The intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in cultured olfactory bulb neurones of Xenopus laevis tadpoles was imaged using the calcium indicator dyes fluo-3 and Fura Red as well as a laser scanning microscope. 2. Upon extracellular application of brief pulses of a solution with high potassium concentration (high [K+]o), an increase in [Ca2+]i occurred in all neurones observed. During the first 2 days in culture this increase was highest. At later stages (more than 2 days in culture) the increase in [Ca2+]i was non-homogeneous and highest in the dendritic processes. 3. Nifedipine (10 microM) reduced the high [K+]o-induced increase in [Ca2+]i. The reduction was greatest in somata and proximal dendrites. 4. With nifedipine in the bath, the high [K+]o-induced increase of [Ca2+]i was further reduced by the application of omega-conotoxin GVIA (1 microM). The omega-conotoxin-sensitive Ca2+ influx occurred predominantly on dendritic processes. 5. Noradrenaline (NA), as well as the alpha 2-adrenergic receptor agonist clonidine, reduced the high [K+]o-induced increase of [Ca2+]i. This reduction occurred mainly on dendritic processes. 6. Our results suggest a highly non-homogeneous spatial distribution of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels in cultured olfactory bulb neurones. L-type channels were found mainly on somata and their density seemed to decrease on the dendrites with increasing distance from the soma. In contrast, nifedipine-insensitive N-type channels were mainly observed on dendrites and were blocked by omega-conotoxin. NA, as well as clonidine, markedly blocked Ca2+ influx through dendritic N-type Ca2+ channels.
