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

background and purposeInhaled corticosteroids, anticholinergics and β₂-adrenoceptor agonists are frequently combined for treating chronic respiratory diseases. We examine the corticosteroid, budesonide, and novel NO-donating derivative, TPI 1020, against histamine- and methacholine-induced bronchoconstriction and whether they enhance the β₂-adrenoceptor agonist formoterol or muscarinic antagonist tiotropium in conscious guinea pigs. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Dunkin-Hartley guinea pigs received inhaled histamine (3 mM) or methacholine (1.5 mM) and specific airway conductance (sG(aw)) was measured before and 15 or 75 min after treatment with budesonide, TPI 1020, tiotropium or formoterol alone or in combinations. KEY

resultsFormoterol (0.7-10 µM) and budesonide (0.11-0.7 mM) inhibited histamine-induced bronchoconstriction and tiotropium (2-20 µM) inhibited methacholine-induced bronchoconstriction by up to 70.8 ± 16.6%, 34.9 ± 4.4% and 85.1 ± 14.3%, respectively. Formoterol (2.5 µM) or tiotropium (2 µM) alone exerted small non-significant bronchoprotection. However, when co-administered with TPI 1020 0.11 mM, which alone had no significant effect, there was significant inhibition of the bronchoconstriction (45.7 ± 12.2% and 79.7 ± 21.4%, respectively). Co-administering budesonide (0.11 mM) with tiotropium (2 µM), which alone had no effect, also significantly inhibited the methacholine bronchoconstriction (36.5 ± 13.0%), but there was no potentiation of formoterol against histamine. The NO scavenger, CPTIO, prevented the bronchoprotection by SNAPand TPI 1020. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: TPI 1020 potentiated the bronchoprotection by formoterol and tiotropium. Budesonide also enhanced the effects of tiotropium but not formoterol. Combination of TPI 1020 with a long-acting β₂-adrenoceptor agonist or muscarinic receptor antagonist may therefore be a more potent therapeutic approach for treatment of chronic respiratory diseases.
