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

Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (the active ingredient of marijuana), as well as endogenous and synthetic cannabinoids, exert many biological functions by activating two types of cannabinoid receptors, CB(1) receptors (expressed by central and peripheral neurons) and CB(2) receptors (that occur mainly in immune cells). Convincing evidence has accumulated in recent years that cannabinoids inhibit gastric and intestinal motility through activation of enteric CB(1) receptors. However, a report in this issue of British Journal of Pharmacology has highlighted the possibility that CB(2) receptors in the rat intestine could contribute to reducing the increase of intestinal motility induced by an endotoxic inflammation. By minimizing the adverse psychotropic effects associated with brain cannabinoid receptors, the CB(2) receptor represents a new molecular target for the treatment of motility disorders associated with intestinal inflammation.
