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

Electron immunocytochemistry was used to examine perivascular nerves of hamster mesenteric and renal arteries during hibernation and 2 h after arousal from hibernation. Vessels from cold-exposed but nonhibernating, and normothermic control hamsters were also examined. During hibernation the percentage of axon profiles in mesenteric and renal arteries that were immunopositive for markers of sympathetic nerves, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and neuropeptide Y (NPY), were increased 2-3 fold compared with normothermic and cold control animals. This increase was reduced markedly only 2 h after arousal from hibernation. The small percentage of nitric oxide synthase-1-positive axon profiles found in mesenteric (but not renal) arteries was also increased during hibernation and returned towards control values after arousal. In contrast, the percentage of perivascular axons immunostaining for vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP), a marker for parasympathetic nerves, was reduced in mesenteric arteries during hibernation. There was no labelling of perivascular nerves for substance P in either mesenteric or renal arteries. It is suggested that the increase in percentage of TH- and NPY-immunostained perivascular nerves may account for the increased vasoconstriction associated with high vascular resistance that is known to occur during hibernation. The reduction in the percentage of axons positive for VIP in hibernating animals would contribute to this mechanism since this neuropeptide is a vasodilator.
