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

Chloride channel protein (ClC)-6a and ClC-6c, a kidney-specific splice variant with a truncated C-terminus, are proteins that belong structurally to the family of voltage-dependent chloride channels. Attempts to characterize functionally ClC-6a or ClC-6c in Xenopus oocytes have so far been negative. Similarly, expression of both ClC-6 isoforms in mammalian cells failed to provide functional information. One possible explanation of these negative results is that ClC-6 is an intracellular chloride channel rather than being located in the plasma membrane. We therefore studied the subcellular location of ClC-6 isoforms by transiently transfecting COS and CHO cells with epitope-tagged versions of ClC-6a and ClC-6c. Confocal imaging of transfected cells revealed for both ClC-6 isoforms an intracellular distribution pattern that clearly differed from the peripheral location of CD2, a plasma-membrane glycoprotein. Furthermore, dual-labelling experiments of COS cells co-transfected with ClC-6a or -6c and the sarco/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+ pump (SERCA2b) indicated that the ClC-6 isoforms co-localized with the SERCA2b Ca2+ pump. Thus ClC-6a and ClC-6c are intracellular membrane proteins, most likely residing in the endoplasmic reticulum. In view of their structural similarity to proven chloride channels, ClC-6 isoforms are molecular candidates for intracellular chloride channels.
