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

aimAirway hyperresponsiveness is a constant feature of asthma. The aim of the present study was to investigate airway hyperreactivity mediated by contractile and dilative receptors in an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced model of rat asthma.

methodsAsthmatic E3 rats were prepared by intraperitoneal injection with OVA/aluminum hydroxide and then challenged with intranasal instillation of OVA-PBS two weeks later. The myograph method was used to measure the responses of constriction and dilatation in the trachea, main bronchi and lobar bronchi.

resultsIn asthmatic E3 rats, beta(2) adrenoceptor-mediated relaxation of airway smooth muscle pre-contracted with 5-HT was inhibited, and there were no obvious difference in relaxation compared with normal E3 rats. Contraction of lobar bronchi mediated by 5-HT and sarafotoxin 6c was more potent than in the trachea or main bronchi. Airway contractions mediated by the endothelin (ET)(A) receptor, ET(B) receptor and M(3) muscarinic receptor were augmented, and the augmented contraction was most obvious in lobar bronchi. The order of efficacy of contraction for lobar bronchi induced by agonists was ET-1, sarafotoxin 6c>ACh>5-HT. OX8 (an antibody against CD8(+) T cells) strongly shifted and OX35 (an antibody against CD4(+) T cells) modestly shifted isoprenaline-induced concentration-relaxation curves in a nonparallel fashion to the left with an increased R(max) in asthmatic rats and sarafotoxin 6c-induced concentration-contractile curves to the right with a decreased E(max).

conclusionThe inhibition of airway relaxation and the augmentation of contraction mediated by receptors contribute to airway hyperresponsiveness and involve CD8(+) and CD4(+) T cells.Acta Pharmacologica Sinica (2009) 30: 965-972; doi: 10.1038/aps.2009.61.
