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
β-Adrenoceptor antagonists are important drugs for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and some of those drugs also block the so-called low-affinity site of β1-adrenoceptors although at much higher concentrations. This low-affinity site, also identified in vivo and in human tissue, may come into play under certain pathophysiological situations including arrhythmias. The aim of our study was to determine the potency of 14 compounds chemically related to bupranolol or bevantolol and two xanthone derivatives at the low-affinity site of the β1-adrenoceptor. The potency of the compounds at the low- and high-affinity site of β1-adrenoceptors (β1L and β1H; both increasing heart rate) was compared in the pithed rat. One compound was also studied in the isolated rat heart and its α1-adrenolytic effect determined in the isolated rat mesenteric artery. In the pithed rat, four compounds blocked the β1L-adrenoceptor at a ≥10-fold lower potency than the β1H-adrenoceptor whereas the xanthone derivative (-)-MH-3 was equipotent. In the spontaneously beating right atrium (-)-MH-3 was a non-competitive antagonist of comparable potency at either receptor; its apparent pD'2 value for the β1L-adrenoceptor ranged from 5.6 to 6.4 under various conditions, including the Langendorff preparation. Its apparent pA2 at the α1-adrenoceptor in the mesenteric artery was 8.4. (-)-MH-3 is the first compound with virtually the same potency at the low- and high-affinity site of β1-adrenoceptors in vivo; it appears to be a non-competitive antagonist at either site in vitro.
