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

Ghrelin, a novel growth hormone-releasing peptide, is present in the rat and human stomach and is known to stimulate acid secretion and stomach motility. However, the mechanism of action of ghrelin is not fully understood. In the present study, we attempted to elucidate the role of histamine in ghrelin-induced acid secretion in rat stomach. Intravenous administration of ghrelin at 0.8 to 20 microg/kg dose dependently increased gastric acid secretion, as measured by the gastric lumen perfusion method. The maximum response was almost equal to that of gastrin (20 microg/kg). These actions were abolished by bilateral subdiaphragmatic vagotomy. Famotidine (0.33 mg/kg) also completely inhibited the effects of ghrelin. Furthermore, ghrelin increased histidine decarboxylase (HDC) messenger RNA (mRNA) levels, as measured by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction using LightCycler. The action of ghrelin on HDC mRNA was abolished by vagotomy. Ghrelin did not affect histamine release from isolated vascularly perfused rat stomach. Taken together, these results suggest that ghrelin stimulates gastric acid secretion via a mechanism involving activation of vagal efferent nerve and histamine release from gastric enterochromaffin-like cells.
