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. Changes in cell capacitance were monitored in whole-cell patch-clamp recordings from calf adrenal chromaffin cells using a software-based phase-tracking technique. Rapid endocytosis and exocytosis were observed in extracellular solutions containing either Ca2+ or Ba2+. 2. There was no significant difference in the magnitude or the time course of rapid endocytosis of cells stimulated in Ca2+ as compared to Ba2+. When cells were pretreated with caffeine and thapsigargin in order to deplete intracellular Ca2+ stores, rapid endocytosis in Ba2+ was not affected. This indicates that Ba2+ itself is capable of supporting rapid endocytosis. 3. The application of the calmodulin inhibitor calmidazolium via the intracellular pipette solution did not inhibit rapid endocytosis. Although our findings are inconsistent with an immediate requirement for calmodulin in rapid endocytosis, they do not rule out an involvement on a longer time scale. 4. While rapid endocytosis was not affected by the substitution of Ca2+ with Ba2+, the maximum rate of exocytosis was higher in cells stimulated in Ca2+ than in Ba2+. Since Ba2+ currents were much larger than Ca2+ currents during depolarizations to +10 mV (the test potential used in these experiments), Ba2+ appears to be less efficient at promoting exocytosis than Ca2+.
