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

The calcitonin-gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor is a heterodimer of calcitonin-receptor-like receptor (CLR) and receptor-activity-modifying protein 1 (RAMP1). Despite the importance of CGRP in regulating gastrointestinal functions, nothing is known about the distribution and function of CLR/RAMP1 in the esophagus, where up to 90 % of spinal afferent neurons contain CGRP. We detected CLR/RAMP1 in the mouse esophagus using immunofluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscopy and examined their relationship with neuronal elements of the myenteric plexus. Immunoreactivity for CLR and RAMP1 colocalized with VGLUT2-positive intraganglionic laminar endings (IGLEs), which were contacted by CGRP-positive varicose axons presumably of spinal afferent origin, typically at sites of CRL/RAMP1 immunoreactivity. This provides an anatomical basis for interaction between spinal afferent fibers and IGLEs. Immunoreactive CLR and RAMP1 also colocalized in myenteric neurons. Thus, CGRP-containing spinal afferents may interact with both vagal IGLEs and myenteric neurons in the mouse esophagus, possibly modulating motility reflexes and inflammatory hypersensitivity.
