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

A large body of evidence supports a role for the NO-cGMP-protein kinase G pathway in the regulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity, brain development and neuroprotection. Circumstantial evidence implicates natriuretic peptide-stimulated cGMP formation in the same CNS functions. In addition to neurons, both cGMP-mediated pathways are functional in glial cells and an increasing number of reports indicate that they may control important aspects of glial cell physiology relevant to neuronal function. In this article we briefly review the regulation of cGMP formation in glial cells and summarize recent evidence indicating that cGMP-mediated pathways can play important roles in astroglial and microglial function in normal and diseased brain.
