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

Previous studies have indicated the expression of multiple P2Y receptors by rat hepatocytes although they have not been identified. Here we show by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT - PCR) that rat hepatocytes express mRNA encoding all of the four cloned rat P2Y receptors (P2Y(1), P2Y(2), P2Y(4) and P2Y(6)). The effects of UTP have been examined on single aequorin-injected rat hepatocytes. The [Ca(2+)](i) transients induced by UTP were indistinguishable from those induced by ATP in the same cell. The modulatory effects of elevated intracellular cyclic AMP concentration were the same on both UTP- and ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) transients. UDP, an agonist at the P2Y(6) receptor, failed to induce transients in hepatocytes, indicating that functional P2Y(6) receptors coupled to increased [Ca(2+)](i) are not expressed. The transients evoked by ADP were more sensitive to inhibition by suramin than those induced by either ATP or UTP. Within an individual cell, the transients induced by ATP and UTP were inhibited by the same concentration of suramin. This sensitivity of ATP and UTP responses to suramin suggests action through P2Y(2) rather than P2Y(4) receptors. Co-application of 30 microM pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2',4'-disulphonic acid (PPADS) caused a decrease in frequency and amplitude of transients induced by ADP. ATP- and UTP-induced transients also displayed a decrease in amplitude in response to addition of PPADS, but this was accompanied by an increase in frequency of transients. In conclusion the data presented here are consistent with the co-expression of P2Y(1) and P2Y(2) receptors by rat hepatocytes.
