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. Postnatal expression of Na+ channels and development of somatic excitability were studied in dorsal horn neurones of rat using patch-clamp recordings from spinal cord slices in combination with the 'entire soma isolation' method. 2. The amplitude of Na+ current in the intact neurone in the slice increased with postnatal development (days 0-39) with a mean rate of 83 pA day-1. 3. The Na+ current in the neuronal soma did not increase with age and the soma, separated from the axon, was not able to fire spikes at any stage of development studied. 4. It is concluded that the postnatal development of the spinal dorsal horn neurone is accompanied by intensive expression of Na+ channels in the axonal but not somatic membrane. The estimated minimum density of Na+ channels in the axon initial segment is approximately 160 channels microm-2.
