Characterization of the 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors mediating contraction in the pig isolated intravesical ureter.

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 This study was designed to investigate the effect of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and to characterize the 5-HT receptors involved in 5-HT responses in the pig intravesical ureter. 2 5-HT (0.01-10 microM) concentration-dependently increased the tone of intravesical ureteral strips, whereas the increases in phasic contractions were concentration-independent. The 5-HT(2) receptor agonist alpha-methyl 5-HT, mimicked the effect on tone whereas weak or no response was obtained with 5-CT, 8-OH-DPAT, m-chlorophenylbiguanide and RS 67333, 5-HT(1), 5-HT(1A), 5-HT(3) and 5-HT(4) receptor agonists, respectively. 5-HT did not induce relaxation of U46619-contracted ureteral preparations. Pargyline (100 microM), a monoaminooxidase A/B activity inhibitor, produced leftward displacements of the concentration-response curves for 5-HT. 3 5-HT-induced tone was reduced by the 5-HT(2) and 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonists ritanserine (0.1 microM) and spiperone (0.2 microM), respectively. However, 5-HT contraction was not antagonized by cyanopindolol (2 microM), SDZ-SER 082 (1 microM), Y-25130 (1 microM) and GR 113808 (0.1 microM), which are respectively, 5-HT(1A/1B), 5-HT(2B/2C), 5-HT(3), and 5-HT(4) selective receptor antagonists. 4 Removal of the urothelium did not modify 5-HT-induced contractions. Blockade of neuronal voltage-activated sodium channels, alpha-adrenergic receptors and adrenergic neurotransmission with tetrodotoxin (1 microM), phentolamine (0.3 microM) and guanethidine (10 microM), respectively, reduced the contractions to 5-HT. However, physostigmine (1 microM), atropine (0.1 microM) and suramin (30 microM), inhibitors of cholinesterase activity, muscarinic- and purinergic P(2)-receptors, respectively, failed to modify the contractions to 5-HT. 5 These results suggest that 5-HT increases the tone of the pig intravesical ureter through 5-HT(2A) receptors located at the smooth muscle. Part of the 5-HT contraction is indirectly mediated via noradrenaline release from sympathetic nerves.
