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

Gastric infection with Helicobacter pylori is associated with hypergastrinemia. Platelet activating factor (PAF) is produced in H. pylori-infected mucosa. The effects of PAF on gastrin release from cultured antral rabbit G cells were examined. Rabbit antral G-cells were obtained by collagenase-EDTA digestion and enriched by centrifugal elutriation. After 40 hr in culture, gastrin release in response to PAF was assessed. PAF stimulated gastrin release in a dose-dependent manner. A maximal release of 67% above basal was seen with PAF at 100 nM. PAF also enhanced the gastrin release stimulated by forskolin and bombesin. PAF-stimulated gastrin release was abolished by a PAF-receptor antagonist. Gastrin release stimulated by PAF was abolished by chelation of intra- or extracellular calcium or the L-type calcium channel inhibitor verapamil as well as by the protein kinase C inhibitor chelerythrine. Platelet-activating factor may contribute to the hypergastrinemia of H. pylori infection by stimulating gastrin release from G cells. PAF-stimulated gastrin release involves influx of extracellular calcium via L-type channels and activation of protein kinase C.
