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 sensitivity of the inward-rectifying Cl- channel in choroid plexus to changes in external pH (pHo) was examined. 2. Cl- currents were recorded using whole-cell patch-clamp methods. The inward-rectifying channel was activated by 375 nM of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A which was added to the electrode solution. 3. Reducing pHo from 7.3 to 6.5 inhibited the inward-rectifying Cl- currents, whereas an increase in current was observed when pHo was elevated to 8.5. The inhibition of the conductance exhibited a sigmoidal relationship with decreasing pH over a range of 8.5 to 5.5. A half-maximal inhibition of the current was observed at pH 7.3. 4. The inhibition of the whole-cell current by reducing pHo suggests that it is carried by channels which are distinct from other inward-rectifier Cl- channels, e.g. ClC-2, phospholemman and the channel in Xenopus oocytes.
