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

To clarify the role of Angiotensin II in the regulation of peripheral sensory and motor systems, we initiated a study of the expression, localization and transport of Angiotensin II receptor types in the rat sciatic nerve pathway, including L(4)-L(5) spinal cord segments, the corresponding dorsal root ganglia (DRGs) and the sciatic nerve. We used quantitative autoradiography for AT(1) and AT(2) receptors, and in situ hybridization to detect AT(1A), AT(1B) and AT(2) mRNAs. We found substantial expression and discrete localization of Angiotensin II AT(1) receptors, with much higher numbers in the grey than in the white matter. A very high AT(1) receptor expression was detected in the superficial dorsal horns and in neuronal clusters of the DRGs. Expression of AT(1A) mRNA was significantly higher than that of AT(1B). AT(1) receptor binding and AT(1A) and AT(1B) mRNAs were especially prominent in ventral horn motor neurons, and in the DRG neuronal cells. Unilateral dorsal rhizotomy significantly reduced AT(1) receptor binding in the ipsilateral side of the superficial dorsal horn, indicating that a substantial number of dorsal horn AT(1) receptors have their origin in the DRGs. After ligation of the sciatic nerve, there was a high accumulation of AT(1) receptors proximal to the ligature, a demonstration of anterograde receptor transport. We found inconsistent levels of AT(2) receptor binding and mRNA. Our results suggest multiple roles of Angiotensin II AT(1) receptors in the regulation of sensory and motor functions.
