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

Substance P modulates the reflex regulation of respiratory function by its actions both peripherally and in the CNS, particularly in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS), the first central site for synaptic contact of the lung and airway afferent fibres. There is considerable evidence that the actions of substance P in the NTS augment respiratory reflex output, but the precise effects on synaptic transmission have not yet been determined. Therefore, we determined the effects of substance P on synaptic transmission at the first central synapses by using whole-cell voltage clamping in an NTS slice preparation. Studies were performed on second-order neurons in the slice anatomically identified as receiving monosynaptic input from sensory nerves in the lungs and airways. This was done by the fluorescent labelling of terminal boutons after 1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetra-methylindocarbo-cyanine perchlorate (DiI) was applied via tracheal instillation. Substance P (1.0, 0.3 and 0.1 microM) significantly decreased the amplitude of excitatory postsynaptic currents (eEPSCs) evoked by stimulation of the tractus solitarius, in a concentration-dependent manner. The decrease was accompanied by an increase in the paired-pulse ratio of two consecutive eEPSCs, and a decrease in the frequency, but not the amplitude, of spontaneous EPSCs and miniature EPSCs, findings consistent with a presynaptic site of action. The effects were consistently and significantly attenuated by a neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptor antagonist (SR140333, 3 muM). The data suggest a new site of action for substance P in the NTS (NK1 receptors on the central terminals of sensory fibres) and a new mechanism (depression of synaptic transmission) for regulating respiratory reflex function.
