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 purposeHistamine and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2 ), directly and via their effects on other cells, regulate the behaviour of vascular smooth muscle (VSM), but their effects on human VSM are incompletely resolved. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: The effects of PGE2 on histamine-evoked changes in intracellular free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+) ]i ) and adenylyl cyclase activity were measured in populations of cultured human aortic smooth muscle cells (ASMCs). Selective ligands of histamine and EP receptors were used to identify the receptors that mediate the responses. KEY

resultsHistamine, via H1 receptors, stimulates an increase in [Ca(2+) ]i that is entirely mediated by activation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors. Selective stimulation of EP2 or EP4 receptors attenuates histamine-evoked Ca(2+) signals, but the effects of PGE2 on both Ca(2+) signals and AC activity are largely mediated by EP2 receptors. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Two important inflammatory mediators, histamine via H1 receptors and PGE2 acting largely via EP2 receptors, exert opposing effects on [Ca(2+) ]i in human ASMCs.
