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. In order to assess ionic mechanisms mediating renal afferent arteriolar myogenic constriction, experiments were performed using isolated perfused hydronephrotic rat kidneys. 2. Increasing pressure progressively constricted the afferent arteriole (-0.26 +/- 0.02% mmHg-1, n = 21, r = 0.97). Gadolinium (10 microM), a mechanosensitive cation channel blocker, abolished this myogenic constriction. However, high potassium media (30 mM) constricted the afferent arteriole in the presence of gadolinium. 3. Lowering extracellular sodium concentration gradually attenuated afferent arteriolar myogenic constriction. In the perfusate containing 50 mM sodium, the myogenic response was arrested. 4. Afferent arteriolar myogenic constriction was prevented in calcium-free perfusate or by the L-type calcium channel blocker diltiazem (10 microM). 5. Our present findings provide evidence that increasing pressure gates mechanosensitive cation channels on the afferent arteriole, thereby eliciting membrane depolarization and activating voltage-dependent calcium channels.
