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

PGE(2) has been linked to the production of gastric arrhythmias such as tachygastria. The interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) generate electrical rhythmicity in gastrointestinal muscles, and may therefore be a target for PGE(2) in gastric muscles. We cultured ICC from the murine gastric antrum, verified that cells were Kit immunoreactive, and measured spontaneous slow waves. These events were caused by spontaneous inward (pacemaker) currents that were not blocked by nifedipine. Forskolin and 8-bromoadenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-Br-cAMP) reduced the frequency of pacemaker currents in ICC and of slow waves in intact antral muscles. The effects of forskolin and 8-Br-cAMP were not blocked by inhibitors of protein kinase A, suggesting that cAMP has direct effects on pacemaker activity. PGE(2) mimicked the effects of forskolin and 8-Br-cAMP on ICC, but increased slow-wave frequency in intact muscles. Therefore, the chronotropic effects of specific prostaglandin EP receptor agonists were examined. Butaprost and ONO-AE1-329, EP(2) and EP(4) receptor agonists, mimicked the effects of forskolin and 8-Br-cAMP on ICC and intact muscles. Sulprostone (EP(3)>EP(1) agonist), GR63799, and ONO-AE-248 (EP(3) agonists) enhanced the frequencies of pacemaker currents in ICC and slow waves in intact muscles. The effects of sulprostone were not blocked by SC-19220, an EP(1) receptor antagonist. These observations suggest that the positive chronotropic effects of PGE(2) in intact muscles are mediated by EP(3) receptor stimulation. The effects of PGE(2) in intact muscles may be dependent upon the relative expression of EP receptors and/or proximity of receptors to sources of PGE(2).
