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 currents of freshly dissociated or cultured Müller cells from human and bovine retinas were studied using the perforated-patch and standard whole-cell recording techniques. 2. We found that internal perfusion of cGMP or external exposure to 8-bromo-cGMP activated a calcium permeable, non-selective cation current in Müller cells, the principal glial cells of the retina. In addition, the activity of calcium-activated potassium channels increased markedly. These currents were minimally affected by cAMP. 3. Molecular studies using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated that human müller cells in culture contain transcripts closely related to the rod cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channel. 4. Since guanylate cyclase is a known target for nitric oxide (NO), we tested the effect of NO donors on Müller cell currents. These agents induced currents that were qualitatively similar to those activated by cGMP. 5. Our experiments support the idea that the NO-cGMP pathway regulates the physiology of Müller cells and may play a role in integrating neuron-glia interactions in the retina.
