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

Activity-dependent facilitation was studied in bovine adrenal chromaffin cells. Stimulation with a train of depolarizations caused subsequent triggered exocytotic activity to be significantly enhanced. After the facilitating stimulus train, the readily releasable vesicle pool (RRP) size was estimated from capacitance jumps in response to paired depolarizations and found to be elevated for a period of at least 10 min. The time dependency of onset and degree of facilitation could be well fitted assuming protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent and independent Ca2+-mediated processes. Both processes increase the recruitment of vesicles from the reserve pool to the RRP, resulting in an greater number of releasable vesicles. The data suggest that cell activity can act as a trigger to increase cytosolic Ca2+ to a level sufficient to cause an increase in the number of readily releasable secretory vesicles, with the more persistent component of the evoked facilitation being mediated through activity-dependent activation of PKC.
