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

We investigated the effect of intermedin/adrenomedullin-2 (3 and 10 nmol/kg, i.v.), a member of the calcitonin gene-related peptide family, relative to the vehicle (0.9% NaCl) on mean circulatory filling pressure (index of venous tone) in conscious rats: intact (unblocked) or ganglionic blocked through treatment with mecamylamine (10 mg/kg, i.v.) and noradrenaline (4 microg/kg/min, i.v.). In intact rats, both doses of intermedin/adrenomedullin-2 reduced mean arterial pressure (-14+/-3, -30+/-3 mmHg), but did not alter mean circulatory filling pressure; the high dose also increased heart rate. In ganglionic-blocked rats, both doses decreased mean arterial pressure (-22+/-3, -46+/-5 mmHg) and the high dose also decreased mean circulatory filling pressure (-2.81+/-0.82 mmHg), but neither dose affected heart rate. The vehicle did not have any effects in any of the groups. In addition, intermedin/adrenomedullin-2 did not have any effect on blood volume in both intact and ganglion-blocked rats. The results show that intermedin/adrenomedullin-2 is a dilator of arterial resistance and capacitance vessels.
