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

background and purposeKinins are implicated in many pathophysiological conditions, and recent evidence has suggested their involvement in colitis. This study assessed the role of the kinin B1 receptors in a mouse model of colitis. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Colitis was induced in mice by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS), and tissue damage and myeloperoxidase activity were assessed. B1 receptor induction was analysed by organ bath studies, binding assay and reverse transcription PCR. KEY

resultsTNBS-induced colitis was associated with tissue damage, neutrophil infiltration and time-dependent increase of colon B1 receptor-mediated contraction, with the maximal response observed at 72 h. The upregulation of the B1 receptor at this time point was also confirmed by means of binding studies. B1 receptor mRNA levels were elevated as early as 6 h after colitis induction and remained high for up to 48 h. TNBS-evoked tissue damage and neutrophil influx were reduced by the selective B1 receptor antagonist SSR240612, and in B1 receptor knockout mice. In vivo treatment with inhibitors of protein synthesis, nuclear factor-kappaB activation, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) or tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) significantly reduced B1 receptor agonist-induced contraction. Similar results were observed in iNOS and TNF receptor 1-knockout mice. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: These results provide convincing evidence on the role of B1 receptors in the pathogenesis of colitis. Therefore, the blockade of kinin B1 receptors might represent a new therapeutic option for treating inflammatory bowel diseases.
