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 adenosine A1 receptor selective agonist, N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CPA, 300 nM) inhibited basal accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates ([3H]InsPs), but not the total levels of membrane [3H]-phosphoinositides, in rat hippocampal slices. This action of CPA was not significantly modified when synaptic transmission was blocked with tetrodotoxin (TTX, 200 nM) but was prevented in slices pre-incubated with pertussis toxin (PTX, 5 microg/mL) for 12-16 hr. Neither PTX nor TTX, when applied in the absence of CPA, influenced basal [3H]InsPs accumulation. It is concluded that the inhibition of the basal phosphatidylinositol metabolism by adenosine A1 receptor activation is independent of neurotransmission and involves a PTX-sensitive G protein, probably of the Gi/Go family.
