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

Peptide 204-212 of lipocortin (LC) 5 inhibited porcine pancreatic phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) induced rat stomach strip contractions and ADP induced rabbit platelet aggregation in a concentration dependent manner (IC(30) of 10 muM and 400 muM, respectively). The first two amino acids are not necessary since the eptapeptide 206-212 was equipotent in both assays (IC(30) of 12.5 muM and 420 muM). Of the two pentapeptides 204-208 and 208-212 only the latter showed inhibitory activity in both models although the potency was much reduced (IC(30) of 170 muM and 630 muM) compared with that of the parent nonapeptide. Comparison of peptide 204-212 effects with those of its analogues on LC1 and LC2 indicate that lysine 208 and aspartic acid 211 are essential in order to maintain a fully active nonapeptide.
