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 have tested whether neurones show a swelling-induced Cl- current following hypotonic shock, by recording membrane current responses and cell volume changes in voltage clamped isolated rat sympathetic neurones during application of hypotonic solutions. 2. Using both whole-cell and perforated patch recording methods, hypotonic solution caused cell swelling and the activation of an inward Cl- current at -60 mV. This current showed weak outward rectification with no obvious time dependence. It was inhibited by SITS (0.3-1 mM), NPPB (30-300 microM) and niflumic acid (50-200 microM), but not by tamoxifen (10 microM). 3. Hypotonic solution did not cause a rise in intracellular Ca2+ concentration as measured by simultaneous indo-1 fluorescence. Also, neither the volume change nor Cl- current were affected by the removal of external Ca2+ or internal Ca2+ buffering to < or = 1 nM with EGTA. 4. The Cl- current was unaffected by an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC; GF109203X, 3 microM) or by omission of ATP from the pipette solution. 5. Cells exhibited a regulatory volume decrease during sustained exposure to hypotonic solution. This was completely inhibited by 0.5 mM niflumic acid. 6. It is concluded that osmotic swelling induces an outwardly rectifying, Ca2(+)- and PKC-independent Cl- current in these nerve cells. It is suggested that this current may be involved in volume regulatory mechanisms.
