Nitric oxide concentrations in gas emanating from the tails of obese rats.

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
This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of oral L-arginine administration and exercising training on the NO concentration emanating from rat tail and NOx in plasma. Obese (fa/fa) Zucker rats (n = 22) were divided into four groups: (1) oral L-arginine administration (A) (n = 6), (2) exercise training (E), (3) exercise training + L-arginine administration (E + A) (n = 5), and (4) non-exercise training + non-L-arginine administration (N) (n = 6). The control (+/+) Zucker rats (n = 22) were also divided into the same four groups. The body weight of the E + A and the A groups was significantly lower than that of the N group. The NO concentration emitted from the tail was higher in the L-arginine (E + A and A) groups than in the non-L-arginine (E and N) groups in both obese and control rats. Exercise training did not affect the skin gas NO concentration in either obese or control rats. Plasma NOx concentrations in four obese rats were significantly higher than those observed in control rats. Exercise training did not influence the level of plasma NOx in obese or control rats. In conclusion, this study confirmed that L-arginine administration increases the skin gas NO concentration and obesity increases the plasma NOx level. The plasma NOx concentrations were not affected by L-arginine administration or exercise training in obese or control rats.
