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

Calcium-triggered exocytosis of neurotransmitter or hormone-filled vesicles has developed as the main mechanism for cell-to-cell communication in animals. Consequently, in the course of evolution this form of exocytosis has been optimized for speed. Since many of the maturation processes of vesicles are intrinsically slow, the solution has been to develop a pool of vesicles that are fully matured and can be fused very rapidly upon stimulation. Vesicles in this readily releasable pool are characterized by very low release rate constants at the resting cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) and very high release rate constants at stimulated [Ca2+]i. Here I review the kinetic and molecular requirements for the existence of such a pool of vesicles, focusing on chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla. I discuss how the use of assay methods with different time resolution may lead to fundamentally different conclusions about the role of proteins in exocytosis. Finally, I review recent evidence that the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, formed between proteins residing in the vesicle and the plasma membrane, is involved in formation and stabilization of the readily releasable vesicle pool, whereas synaptotagmin, a Ca2+- and phospholipid-binding vesicular protein, is involved in setting the Ca2+ dependence of the fusion process itself. Future studies are likely to focus on the interaction between these two classes of proteins.
