Mechanosensitive duodenal afferents contribute to vagal modulation of inflammation in the rat.
Article in The Journal of physiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Noxious stimuli inhibit inflammation by activating neuroendocrine stress axes, an effect that is potently attenuated by ongoing activity in subdiaphragmatic vagal afferents. Because this vagal afferent activity is carried in the coeliac and coeliac accessory branches of the subdiaphragmatic vagus, we tested the hypothesis that the activity arises from vagal afferents that innervate a proximal segment of the gastrointestinal tract. Surgical removal of the duodenum, but not the stomach, produces a marked (six orders of magnitude) leftward shift in the dose-response curve for intraplantar capsaicin-induced inhibition of synovial plasma extravasation induced by the potent inflammatory mediator bradykinin, in the knee joint; this is similar in magnitude to the inhibition produced by subdiaphragmatic or by coeliac plus coeliac accessory branch vagotomy. Fasting, to unload mechanically sensitive polymodal afferents in the proximal gastrointestinal tract, produces a similar leftward shift in the dose-response curve for the inhibitory effect of capsaicin, an effect that is reversed by balloon distension in the duodenum in fasted rats, while balloon distension postvagotomy had no effect. These results suggest that activation of mechanically sensitive vagal afferents in the duodenum contributes vagal afferent activity that modulates neuroendocrine control of the inflammatory response.
