Tachykinin-induced contraction of the guinea-pig isolated oesophageal mucosa is mediated by NK(2) receptors.
Article in British journal of pharmacology, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 tachykinin receptor present in the guinea-pig oesophageal mucosa that mediates contractile responses of the muscularis mucosae has been characterized, using functional in vitro experiments. 2. The NK(1) receptor-selective agonist, [Sar(9)(O(2))Met(11)]SP and the NK(3) receptor-selective agonists, [MePhe(7)]-NKB and senktide, produced no response at submicromolar concentrations. The NK(2) receptor-selective agonists, [Nle(10)]-NKA(4 - 10), and GR 64,349 produced concentration-dependent contractile effects with pD(2) values of 8.20+/-0.16 and 8.30+/-0.15, respectively. 3. The concentration-response curve to the non-selective agonist, NKA (pD(2)=8.13+/-0.04) was shifted significantly rightwards only by the NK(2) receptor-selective antagonist, GR 159,897 and was unaffected by the NK(1) receptor-selective antagonist, SR 140,333 and the NK(3) receptor-selective antagonist, SB 222,200. 4. The NK(2) receptor-selective antagonist, GR 159,897, exhibited an apparent competitive antagonism against the NK(2) receptor-selective agonist, GR 64,349 (apparent pK(B) value=9.29+/-0.16) and against the non-selective agonist, NKA (apparent pK(B) value=8.71+/-0.19). 5. The NK(2) receptor-selective antagonist, SR 48,968 exhibited a non-competitive antagonism against the NK(2) receptor-selective agonist, [Nle(10)]-NKA(4 - 10). The pK(B) value was 10.84+/-0.19.6. It is concluded that the guinea-pig isolated oesophageal mucosa is a useful preparation for studying the effects of NK(2) receptor-selective agonists and antagonists as the contractile responses to various tachykinins are mediated solely by NK(2) receptors.
