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

ATP and UTP are endogenous agonists of P2Y(2/4) receptors. To define the in vivo effects of P2Y(2) receptor activation on blood pressure and urinary excretion, we compared the response to INS45973, a P2Y(2/4) receptor agonist and UTP analog, in wild-type (WT) and P2Y(2) receptor knockout (P2Y(2)-/-) mice. INS45973 was administered intravenously as a bolus injection or continuous infusion to determine effects on blood pressure and renal function, respectively. Within seconds, bolus application of INS45973 (0.1 to 3 mg/kg body wt) dose-dependently decreased blood pressure in WT (maximum response -35 ± 2 mmHg) and to a similar extent in endothelial nitric oxide synthase knockout mice. By contrast, blood pressure increased in P2Y(2)-/- (maximum response +18 ± 1 mmHg) but returned to basal levels within 60 s. Continuous infusion of INS45973 (25 to 750 μg·min(-1)·kg(-1) body wt) dose-dependently increased urinary excretion of Na(+) in WT (maximum response +46 ± 15%) but reduced Na(+) excretion in P2Y(2)-/- (maximum responses of -45 ± 15%) mice. In renal clearance experiments, INS45973 did not affect glomerular filtration rate but lowered blood pressure and increased fractional excretion of fluid, Na(+), and K(+) in WT relative to P2Y(2)-/- mice. The blood pressure responses to INS45973 are consistent with P2Y(2) receptor-mediated NO-independent vasodilation and implicate responses to endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor, and P2Y(2) receptor-independent vasoconstriction, probably via activation of P2Y(4) receptors on smooth muscle. Systemic activation of P2Y(2) receptors thus lowers blood pressure and inhibits renal Na(+) reabsorption, effects suggesting the potential utility of P2Y(2) agonism in the treatment of hypertension.
