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

Potentiation of adenosinergic inhibitory modulation is one of possible strategies to develop new antiepileptic drugs. Nonspecific receptor agonist 2-chloroadenosine was tested against pentetrazol-induced convulsions in immature (7, 12, 18 and 25 days old) and adult rats. Doses of 1-15 mg/kg i.p. suppressed tonic phase of generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) in the two youngest groups, whereas GTCS were abolished in older rats. Minimal clonic seizures in 18-day and older rats were suppressed by high doses of 2-chloroadenosine. The role of A1 and A2A adenosine receptors was studied in 12- and 25-day-old rats. Action of an agonist of A1 receptors CCPA is similar to that of 2-chloroadenosine. An agonist of A2A receptors CGS 21680 exhibits an anticonvulsant action only in the dose-inducing catalepsy; an A2A antagonist ZM 241385 moderately suppressed tonic phase of GTCS only in 12-day-old animals. Anticonvulsant action of adenosine agonists is due to their effects on A1 receptors.
