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

Rat hepatocytes respond to alpha-adrenergic stimulation by intracellular production of myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) which stimulates the periodic release and reuptake of intracellular store (IS) Ca2+. The generation of these Ca2+ oscillations was investigated by simultaneously monitoring Ca2+ changes in the cytosol and IS by combined fluorescence microscopy and whole-cell patch clamp. Intracellular IP3 perfusion (1-50 microM in the pipette) produced three types of Ca2+ response: understimulation, oscillations and overstimulation, i.e. with Ca2+ levels not returning to baseline. In a total of 57 experiments, only three displayed oscillations during continuous IP3 infusion, in a narrow range of IP3 concentration centred around 5-8 microM in the pipette. In oscillating cells, cytosolic Ca2+ spikes were synchronized with transient Ca2+ depletions of the IS, consistent with a direct exchange of Ca2+ between the two compartments. Application of 8-Br-cAMP to cells infused with IP3 increased the probability of eliciting Ca2+ oscillations by a factor of 4-5 for IP3 concentrations in the range 1-10 microM, whereas IP3 concentrations above 10 microM always resulted in overstimulation. IP3 photorelease experiments and measurements of IS Ca2+ content indicated that 8-Br-cAMP enhanced the affinity of the IP3 receptor and increased the pool of releasable Ca2+. We propose that cAMP has a permissive role in the generation of IP3-induced Ca2+ oscillations by extending the window of IP3 concentrations able to elicit oscillations.
