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. The effects of a novel N-type voltage-operated calcium channel antagonist, omega-conotoxin CVID, were compared with omega-conotoxin MVIIA on sympathetic-evoked activation of right atria (RA), small mesenteric arteries (MA) and vasa deferentia (VD) isolated from the rat. Their effects were also compared on blood pressure and cardiovascular reflexes in conscious rabbits. 2. The pIC(50) values for MVIIA and CVID, respectively, for inhibiting sympathetic-evoked responses were equivalent in RA (8.7 and 8.7) and VD (9.0 and 8.7); however, in MA the values were 8.4 and 7.7. The cardiac to vascular (RA/MA) potency ratios, antilog (plog RA - plog MA), for MVIIA and CVID were 2 and 10. The offset rates for CVID and MVIIA were rapid, and peptide reapplication caused rapid onset of blockade, suggesting limited desensitization. 3. In the conscious rabbit, CVID and MVIIA (100 microg kg(-1) i.v.) caused a similar fall in blood pressure and a tachycardia that rapidly reached maximum. Both peptides decreased the vagal- and sympathetic-mediated components of the baroreflex, but had no effect on the vagal nasopharyngeal reflex. The orthostatic reflex to 90 degrees tilt was blocked by MVIIA with sustained postural hypotension for > or = 90 min after administration. In contrast, CVID caused postural hypotension at 30 min which recovered rapidly. 4. Neither CVID nor MVIIA (3 microg kg(-1) i.t.) significantly altered cardiovascular variables or autonomic reflexes. 5. In conclusion, CVID appears to be relatively weak at inhibiting the reflex response to tilt consistent with its weaker inhibition of rat mesenteric artery constriction to perivascular nerve stimulation. This may point to subtype N-type calcium channel selectivity.
