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

1.--The cardiostimulant effects of CGP12177, mediated through a beta(1)-adrenoceptor site with low affinity for (-)-propranolol, are potentiated by the nonselective PDE inhibitor IBMX but the role of PDE isoenzymes is unknown. We studied the effects of the PDE3-selective inhibitor cilostamide (300 nM) and PDE4-selective inhibitor rolipram (1 microM) on the positive inotropic and cyclic AMP-enhancing effects of CGP12177 and noradrenaline in right ventricular strips of rat. 2.--CGP12177 (under (-)-propranolol 200 nM) only increased contractile force in the presence of either cilostamide or rolipram with -logEC(50)M 6.7 (E(max)=23% over basal) and 7.1 (E(max)=50%) respectively. The combination of cilostamide and rolipram caused CGP12177 to enhance contractile force with -logEC(50)M=7.7 and E(max)=178%. 3.--The positive inotropic effects of noradrenaline (-logEC(50)M=6.9) were potentiated by rolipram (-logEC(50)M=7.4) but not by cilostamide (-logEC(50)M=7.0). 4.--In the presence of rolipram and (-)-propranolol, noradrenaline (2 microM) and CGP12177 (10 microM) produced matching inotropic effects but failed to increase cyclic AMP levels. 20 microM (-)-noradrenaline increased cyclic AMP levels, a response further enhanced by rolipram. 5.--Both PDE3 and PDE4 of rat ventricle appear to hydrolyse cyclic AMP generated through the low-affinity beta(1)-adrenoceptor site, thereby preventing inotropic responses of CGP12177. When (-)-noradrenaline interacts with the beta(1)-adrenoceptor, the generated cyclic AMP is hydrolysed only by PDE4, thereby reducing cardiostimulation.
