Defective potassium currents in ataxia telangiectasia fibroblasts.
Article in Genes & development, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Similarities exist between the progressive cerebellar ataxia in ataxia telangiectasia (AT) patients and a number of neurodegenerative diseases in both mouse and man involving specific mutations in ion channels and/or ion channel activity. These relationships led us to investigate the possibility of defective ion channel activity in AT cells. We examined changes in the membrane potential of AT fibroblasts in response to extracellular cation addition and found that the ability of AT fibroblasts to depolarize in response to increasing concentrations of extracellular K+ is significantly reduced when compared with control fibroblasts. Electrophysiological measurements performed with a number of AT cell lines, as well as two matched sets of primary AT fibroblast cultures, reveal that outward rectifier K+ currents are largely absent in AT fibroblasts in comparison with control cells. These K+ current defects can be corrected in AT fibroblasts transfected with the full-length ATM cDNA. These data implicate, for the first time, a role for ATM in the regulation of K+ channel activity and membrane potential.
