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

Expression of P2X(4) and P2X(6) receptor subunits in the gastrointestinal tract of the rat was studied with double-labeling fluorescence immunohistochemistry. The results showed that P2X(6) receptors were expressed widely in the submucosal and myenteric plexuses. In the myenteric plexus, P2X(6) receptors were expressed mainly in large size neurons which resembled Dogiel type II neurons. These P2X(6) receptor-immunoreactive (ir) neurons also expressed calbindin 28K, calretinin and neuronal nuclei (NeuN), proteins that are markers of intrinsic sensory neurons. In the submucosal plexus, all the calbindin 28K, calretinin and NeuN-ir cells were immunoreactive for P2X(6) receptors. P2X(6) receptors do not form homomultimers, but rather heteromultimers with either P2X(2) or P2X(4) receptors. P2X(4) receptors were not expressed in neurons, but were expressed in macrophages of the rat gastrointestinal tract. These data indicate that P2X(6) receptors are mainly expressed on intrinsic sensory neurons and that ATP, via P2X(6) receptors probably in heteromeric combination with P2X(2) receptors, may be involved in regulating the physiological functions of these neurons.
