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. Streptomycin has been demonstrated to inhibit mechanosensitive conductances in a wide variety of cell types, including muscle. The action of streptomycin on rat cerebral arteries that exhibit pressure-induced myogenic response was investigated. 2. Pressure-induced tone, measured using isobaric myography, in isolated pressurized cerebral arteries was reversibly and concentration-dependently inhibited by streptomycin with an IC50 of 2.6 mM. 3. Isometric K+-induced force, measured using isometric myography, is supported by voltage-gated Ca2+ entry. Streptomycin reversibly and concentration-dependently inhibited isometric force with an IC50 of 1.71 mM. 4. Voltage-gated macroscopic inward Ca2+ channel currents were recorded from freshly isolated rat basilar myocytes. These were reversibly and concentration-dependently inhibited by streptomycin with an IC50 of 1.79 and 0.47 mM when 10 and 1.8 mM CaCl2, respectively, was used as the charge carrier. 5. These data suggest that streptomycin inhibits myogenic tone and K+-induced isometric force largely by blockade of L-type, dihydropyridine-sensitive Ca2+ channels. In conclusion, streptomycin is not useful in the investigation of stretch-activated channels which may underlie the myogenic response of rat small cerebral arteries.
