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. We analysed spontaneously active expiratory neurones (n = 48) of anaesthetized cats for the presence of ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels. 2. Intracellular injection of ATP reversibly depolarized neurones during all phases of the respiratory cycle. During expiration, membrane potential depolarized by an average of 1.5 +/- 0.1 mV leading to a 25% increase of discharge frequency. During inspiration, ATP induced a 1.8 +/- 0.2 mV depolarization, which was accompanied by a maximum of 20% increase of input resistance (Rn). 3. Extracellular application of diazoxide, an agonist of KATP channels, resulted in reversible membrane hyperpolarization in 68% of neurones (n = 19). This hyperpolarization (2.5 mV during expiration and 3.1 mV during inspiration) was accompanied by a 22% decrease in Rn. 4. Extracellular application of tolbutamide and glibenclamide, two antagonists of KATP channels, evoked reversible depolarizations in 76% of neurones (n = 21). The depolarization was relatively constant throughout the respiratory cycle (1.4 mV during expiration and 2.3 mV during inspiration). Rn increased by 22%. 5. The same sulphonylureas also changed the steepness of membrane depolarization when neurones escaped spontaneous synaptic inhibition during postinspiration. Extracellularly applied tolbutamide and glibenclamide increased the steepness of depolarization by 21%, while diazoxide reduced it by 20%. 6. Antagonism of drugs was verified by simultaneous extra- and intracellular application of diazoxide and glibenclamide, respectively. 7. During voltage clamp at holding potential at -60 to -67 mV, intracellular or extracellular application of tolbutamide and glibenclamide blocked a persistent outward current. 8. We conclude that KATP channels are functional in expiratory neurones of adult cats and contribute to the control of excitability even during normoxia.
