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
The central noradrenergic system participates in diverse nervous functions. Nevertheless, our knowledge of the action of adrenoceptors in motor regulation is still lacking. Intriguingly, reticulospinal neurons in the caudal pontine reticular nucleus (PnC) receive fairly dense noradrenergic innervation and play an important role in motor control. Here, after demonstrating the expression of α1- and α2-adrenoceptors in the PnC, we found that noradrenaline elicited a post-synaptic effect (inward or outward whole-cell current at -70 mV holding) on PnC reticulospinal neurons. The α1- and α2-adrenoceptors were co-expressed in individual PnC reticulospinal neurons to mediate an inward and an outward current component at -70 mV holding, respectively, which, when superposed, produced the overall post-synaptic effects of noradrenaline (NA). More importantly, the activation of post-synaptic α1- or α2-adrenoceptors indeed exerted opposing modulations (excitation vs. inhibition) on the firing activities of individual PnC reticulospinal neurons. Furthermore, the activation and inhibition of the Na
