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

aimTo investigate ion channel mechanism in CNP-induced relaxation of gastric circular smooth muscle in guinea pigs.

methodsSpontaneous contraction of gastric smooth muscle was recorded by a four -channel physiograph. The whole cell patch-clamp technique was used to record calcium-activated potassium currents and membrane potential in the gastric myocytes isolated by collagenase.

resultsC-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) markedly inhibited the spontaneous contraction in a dose-dependent manner in gastric circular smooth muscle in guinea pigs. Ly83583, an inhibitor of guanylate cyclase, weakened CNP-induced inhibition on spontaneous contraction but Zaparinast, an inhibitor of cGMP sensitive phosphoesterase, potentiated CNP-induced inhibition in gastric circular smooth muscles. The inhibitory effects of CNP on spontaneous contraction were blocked by tetrathylammonium (TEA), a nonselective potassium channel blocker. CNP hyperpolarized membrane potential from -60.0 mV+/-2.0 mV to -68.3 mV+/-3.0 mV in a single gastric myocyte. CNP increased calcium-activated potassium currents (I(K(ca))) in a dose-dependent manner in gastric circular myocytes. CNP also increased the spontaneously transient outward currents (STOCs). Ly83583 partly blocked CNP-induced increase of calcium-activated potassium currents, but Zaparinast potented the effect.

conclusionCNP inhibits spontaneous contraction, and potassium channel may be involved in the process in gastric circular smooth muscle of guinea pigs. CNP-induced increase of I(K(ca)) is mediated by a cGMP dependent pathway.
