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 demonstrated previously that, by suppressing cAMP levels, metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) play a crucial role in opioid receptor trafficking on GABAergic nerve terminals within gastric brainstem vagal circuits. Using whole-cell patch-clamp recordings, we aimed to correlate the influence of sensory vagal afferent fibers with the functional organization of mGluRs on the synaptic connections between the nucleus tractus solitarius and dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus. Group II mGluRs were identified on both excitatory and inhibitory synapses; the receptor-selective agonist APDC [(2R,4R)-4-aminopyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylate] induced a concentration-dependent decrease in glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptic transmission (EC50, approximately 20 microM for both). The group II mGluRs were activated tonically on GABAergic, but not glutamatergic synapses, as the receptor-selective antagonist (2S)-alpha-ethylglutamic acid (EGLU; 200 microM) modulated GABA currents only. After selective vagal deafferentation, EGLU was without effect, suggesting that vagal afferent (sensory) fibers are the source of this tonic input. Conversely, group III mGluRs, although not activated tonically, were present on excitatory, but not inhibitory, synapses; in fact, the receptor-selective agonist L-AP-4 [L-(+)-2-amino-4-phosphonbutyric acid] induced a concentration-dependent decrease in glutamatergic synaptic transmission (EC50, approximately 2 microM) but had no effect on GABAergic synaptic transmission. Together with our previous results on receptor trafficking, these data suggest that visceral information plays a fundamental role in shaping the response of homeostatic brainstem circuits that receive inputs from higher integrative neuronal centers.
