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.
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
The muscarinic K(+) channel (I (K,ACh)) is a heterotetramer composed of GIRK1 (Kir3.1) and GIRK4 (Kir3.4) subunits of a G protein-coupled inwardly rectifying channel, and plays an important role in mediating electrical responses to the vagal stimulation in the heart. I (K,ACh) displays biphasic changes (activation followed by inhibition) through the stimulation of the purinergic P2Y receptors, but the regulatory mechanism involved in these modulation of I (K,ACh) by P2Y receptors remains to be fully elucidated. Various P2Y receptor subtypes and GIRK1/GIRK4 (I (GIRK)) were co-expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, and the effect of stimulation of P2Y receptor subtypes on I (GIRK) were examined using the whole-cell patch-clamp method. Extracellular application of 10 μM ATP induced a transient activation of I (GIRK) through the P2Y(1) receptor, which was completely abolished by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. ATP initially caused an additive transient increase in ACh-activated I (GIRK) (via M(2) receptor), which was followed by subsequent inhibition. This inhibition of I (GIRK) by ATP was attenuated by co-expression of regulator of G-protein signaling 2, or phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate-5-kinase, or intracellular phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate loading, but not by the exposure to protein kinase C inhibitors. P2Y(4) stimulation also persistently suppressed the ACh-activated I (GIRK). In addition, I (GIRK) evoked by the stimulation of the P2Y(4) receptor exhibited a transient activation, but that evoked by the stimulation of P2Y(2) or P2Y(12) receptor showed a rather persistent activation. These results reveal (1) that P2Y(1) and P2Y(4) are primarily coupled to the G(q)-phospholipase C-pathway, while being weakly linked to G(i/o), and (2) that P2Y(2) and P2Y(12) involve G(i/o) activation.
