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. Missense mutations in the alpha-subunit of the human skeletal muscle sodium channel (hSkM1) have been detected in some heritable forms of myotonia. By recording Na+ currents from cells transfected with cDNA encoding either wild-type or mutant hSkM1, we characterized the functional consequences of two myotonia-associated mutations that lie at the cytoplasmic end of the sixth transmembrane segment in domain II (S804F) or domain III (V1293I). 2. Both mutations caused modest, but unequivocal, alterations in the voltage-dependent gating behaviour of hSkM1. For S804F, the abnormalities were limited to fast inactivation: the persistent Na+ current at the end of a 50 ms depolarization was increased 3-fold, the rate of inactivation from the open state was slowed 2-fold, and the voltage dependence of fast inactivation (h) was shifted by +3 mV. V1293I also disrupted fast inactivation, as evidenced by a 3-fold faster rate of recovery at hyperpolarized potentials (-70 mV). Activation was altered as well for V1293I: the voltage dependence was shifted by -6 mV (hyperpolarized). 3. Slow inactivation was not altered by S804F or V1293I. 4. We conclude that S804F and V1293I are not benign polymorphisms. Either mutation causes detectable alterations in channel gating and, in model simulations, the magnitude of the defects is sufficient to produce runs of myotonic discharges.
