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 aim of this study was to examine the effect of atrial natriuretic peptides on primary cultures of ependymal cells, as measured by changes in intracellular levels of cyclic GMP. Incubation of ependymal cells with rat atrial natriuretic peptide-(1-28) (rANP) elicited a 30-fold increase in ependymal cGMP content within 1 min and more than a 100-fold increase within 10 min to a plateau value of approximately 30 pmol/mg protein. The C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) elicited a similar increase in cGMP levels; however the maximal effect was observed within 1 min and the levels subsequently dropped by 90% to a low plateau within 10 min. A comparison of the concentration-response curves for rANP, human ANP-(1-28) (hANP) and CNP showed that rANP, hANP and CNP had similar effects, with regards to elevation of cGMP levels at high concentrations, but with differing EC50 values. These results demonstrate the presence of a heterogenous population of functional ANP receptors i n cultured ependymalcells suggesting that ANP may regulate specific ependymal cell activity.
