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

The actions of omega-conotoxin (omega-CTX) and diltiazem on adrenergic and purinergic components of double peaked vasoconstrictor responses to periarterial nerve stimulation have been investigated in the isolated, perfused canine splenic arterial preparation. Double peaked vasoconstrictions (biphases of vasoconstrictors) were consistently observed in the conditions of 30 s trains of pulses at 1 - 10 Hz frequencies. omega-CTX (1 - 30 nM) produced similar inhibitory effects on the first phase and second phase responses in a dose-related manner. Thirty nM omega-CTX almost completely inhibited the biphasic vasoconstrictions at any used frequencies but did not affect the vasoconstrictor responses to exogenous applied ATP (0.01 - 1 micromol) and noradrenaline (0.03 - 3 nmol). Intraluminal application of a large dose of diltiazem (3 - 10 microM) also produced a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on biphasic vasoconstrictions at any used frequencies. Three microM diltiazem exerted rather a larger inhibitory effect on the second phase than the first phase response at low frequencies (1 - 3 Hz), but a similar inhibition on first and second phasic responses at high frequencies (6 - 10 Hz). An extremely high dose of diltiazem (10 microM) almost completely inhibited the biphasic vasoconstrictor responses to nerve stimulation, and slightly inhibited the contractile responses to exogenous applied ATP (0.01 - 1 micromol) and noradrenaline (0.03 - 3 nmol). The present results indicate that omega-CTX selectively acts prejunctionally to inhibit the release of transmitters from sympathetic nerve terminals, and omega-CTX-sensitive calcium channels may produce a parallel controlling of purinergic and adrenergic components of sympathetic cotransmission. A large dose of diltiazem has inhibitory effects on both prejunctional and postjunctional sympathetic co-transmission. British Journal of Pharmacology (2000) 129, 47 - 52
