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 We have investigated the role of kinin B1 receptor induction in the endotoxemic rat heart and elucidated the mechanisms underlying B1 receptor-mediated coronary vasodilation. We also investigated the role of these receptors in endotoxin-induced hypotension. 2 Endotoxin treatment induced cardiac B1 receptor mRNA expression and promoted a coronary vasodilation response to des-Arg9bradykinin (DABK; ED50 = 149.4 pmol, n = 9) ex vivo peaking at 6 h. The B1 receptor antagonist des-Arg9-[Leu8]-BK (DALBK, 30 nM) significantly (P<0.05) inhibited the DABK-induced response (pA2 = 8.4, n = 5) whilst HOE140 (B2 receptor antagonist, 10 nM) was inactive (n = 4). 3 Removal of the endothelium or infusion with indomethacin (5 microM), but not L-NAME (300 microM) or ODQ (1 microM), inhibited (>85%, P<0.05, n = 5) the DABK-induced response. DABK caused a dose-dependent release of the prostacyclin metabolite, 6-keto-PGF1a (Emax = 0.3 ng ml-1, n = 6). 4 In vitro perfusion of hearts with endotoxin (1 microg ml-1, n = 6) or interleukin-1beta (5 ng ml-1, n = 6) induced B1 receptor mRNA expression and promoted a time-dependent vasodilation response to DABK. 5 Endotoxin treatment (6 h) in vivo promoted a hypotensive response to DABK (ED50 = 29.7 nmol kg-1, n = 10) which was antagonised by DALBK (3-6 nmol kg-1 min-1, P<0.05, n = 7). DALBK (3 nmol kg-1 min-1) and des-Arg10HOE140 (B1 receptor antagonist, 30 nmol kg-1 min-1) produced a 5.3% (n = 6, P<0.05) and 8.8% (n = 5, P<0.05) reversal, respectively, of endotoxin-induced hypotension. 6 In summary, we have shown that in endotoxemia activation of B1 receptors causes coronary vasodilation via endothelial prostacyclin release. Additionally, B1 receptor antagonists partially reversed endotoxin-induced hypotension. Therefore activation of B1 receptors may have a role to play in the vascular changes associated with endotoxemia.
