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

Potassium channels in the apical and basolateral membranes of tubule cells serve several important functions. They contribute to the generation of the cell-negative potential, mediate volume reductions following cell swelling and play a key role in secretion of potassium in both the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and principal tubule cells of the initial and cortical collecting tubules. Secretion of potassium occurs via a well-defined class of potassium channels distinguished by their low single channel conductance, mild inward rectification, high sensitivity to inhibition by low pH, millimolar concentrations of ATP, arachidonic acid and PKC, and stimulation by vasopressin and pretreatment with a high potassium diet. Genes encoding several isoforms of this channel have been cloned and the proteins located to the apical membranes of cells lining the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and the collecting tubules, and progress made concerning their structure-function relationship.
