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. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were used to study voltage-dependent Ca2+ currents in skeletal myoballs cultured from newborn rats. 2. Depolarizing voltage pulses evoked classical L-type Ca2+ currents, whereas repolarization induced tail currents, whose properties deviated from the expected behaviour of the preceding Ca2+ currents in both voltage dependence and kinetics. 3. Depolarizations of up to +10 mV primarily recruited tail currents that correspond to the Ca2+ channels activated and conducting during the depolarizing pulse, but stronger depolarizations yielded an additional tail current component that exceeded the 'normal' tail current amplitude by several-fold. 4. Activation kinetics of the tail currents were biexponential, with a fast time constant matching the activation time course of the pulse currents (tau approximately 40 ms) and an additional slower component with a voltage-dependent time course that had no kinetic counterpart in the pulse currents (tau approximately 150-600 ms). 5. Both pulse and tail currents were blocked by the dihydropyridine, PN200-110, suggesting that they represent Ca2+ channels of the L-type. 6. We suggest the presence of at least two subsets of dihydropyridine-sensitive Ca2+ channels in skeletal muscle cells. One subset has classical L-type channel characteristics and the other has anomalous gating behaviour that is 'activated' or 'primed' by strong and long-lasting depolarizations without conducting significant Ca2+ current--however, upon repolarization, this subset of channels generates large tail currents.
