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

Hypoxia-induced shortening of the action potential duration, attributed to activation of the ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels, occurs to a much greater extent in ventricular cells from diabetic rats. This study examined whether the KATP channels are altered in streptozotocin-diabetic myocardium. In inside-out patches from ventricular myocytes (with symmetrical 140 mM [K+]), inward KATP currents (at potentials negative to the K+ reversal potential) were similar in amplitude in control and diabetic patches (slope conductances: 69 and 74 pS, respectively). However, outward single-channel currents were larger for channels from diabetic heart cells than from control cells (e.g., at +75 mV the diabetic channel currents were 3.7 +/- 0.3 pA vs. 2.7 +/- 0.1 pA for control currents, p < 0.05), due to reduced inward rectification of diabetic channel currents. There was no difference in open and closed times between control and diabetic channels. The IC50 for ATP inhibition of the KATP channel single-channel currents was 11.4 microM for control currents and 4.7 microM for diabetic channel currents. Thus, the major difference found between KATP channels from control and diabetic hearts was the greater outward diabetic single-channel current, which may contribute to the enhanced sensitivity to hypoxia (or ischemia) in diabetic hearts.
