Inhibitory role of the spinal galanin system in the control of micturition.
Article in Urology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
objectiveTo investigate the effect of intrathecal galanin on the micturition reflex in rats.
methodsContinuous cystometrograms (0.04 mL/min infusion rate) were performed in female Sprague-Dawley rats (225-248 g) under urethane anesthesia. After stable micturition cycles were established, galanin was administered intrathecally to evaluate changes in bladder activity. Then, to examine the involvement of opioid systems in the galanin effects, galanin was administered intrathecally when the first bladder contraction was observed after intrathecal administration of naloxone, an opioid receptor antagonist.
resultsIntrathecal administration of galanin (1-10 μg) increased intercontraction intervals in a dose-dependent fashion. Intrathecal administration of galanin (1-10 μg) also increased pressure threshold in a dose-dependent fashion. These inhibitory effects of galanin (10 μg) were partially antagonized by intrathecal administration of naloxone (10 μg).
conclusionThese results indicate that in urethane-anesthetized rats, galanin delays the onset of micturition through activation of the opioid mechanism, suggesting the inhibitory role of galanin system in the control of the micturition reflex.
