Effect of endothelin-1 on erythropoietin production in a rat model under normoxia and functional carbon monoxide-induced hypoxia.

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
It has been hypothesized that autacoids, such as endothelin-1 (ET), may modulate erythropoietin (Epo) secretion. Therefore, we studied the effect of ET-1 infusion and of a nonselective ET(A/B) receptor antagonist on Epo secretion under carbon monoxide (CO) exposure. Anesthetized rats were supplied with room temperature air containing increasing concentrations of CO by an aerating cap. A CO-Epo dose-response curve over the range of 0.02-0.14 vol% CO was conducted. Subpressor doses of ET-1 (3 pmol/min/kg BW) and the ET(A/B) receptor antagonist LU302872 (LU; 30 mg/kg) were applied to anaesthetized rats under normoxia (controls CON, ET, LU) and following hypoxia (CO exposure; H-CON, H-ET, H-LU). Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), glomerular filtration rate (GFR, inulin clearance), Epo and ET-1 serum concentrations (ELISA) and renal Epo mRNA (Light Cycler) were determined. The EC50 value for CO was 0.1 vol% with a 70-fold increase in Epo serum concentrations. CO exposure increased Epo serum and Epo mRNA concentrations in the expected range in all groups. None of the treatments with ET or LU influenced the effect of hypoxia on Epo serum concentrations and renal Epo mRNA content. Under hypoxia, administration of ET-1 as well as LU prevented the hypoxia-induced decrease in MAP (p<0.05). Under hypoxia, GFR was reduced by 50% except for H-LU with values comparable to normoxia. Taken together, the influence of hypoxia exceeds by far the effect of ET-1 on Epo production, irrespective of the presence or absence of exogenous ET-1. Thus, ET-1 does not appear to be a major modulator of Epo production.
