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 insulinotropic effects of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are mediated via GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) present on pancreatic β cells. GLP-1 causes a decrease in the motility of stomach and intestine which involves both central and peripheral nervous systems. The expression and function of GLP-1R in gastrointestinal smooth muscle, however, are not clear. Muscle strips and isolated muscle cells were prepared from mouse colon and the effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide on acetylcholine (ACh)-induced contraction was measured. Muscle cells in culture were used to identify the expression of GLP-1R and the signaling pathways activated by GLP-1(7-36) amide. GLP-1R was expressed in the mucosal and non-mucosal tissue preparations derived from colon, and in smooth muscle cell cultures devoid of other cells such as enteric neurons. In colonic muscle strips, the addition of GLP-1(7-36) amide caused dose-dependent inhibition of acetylcholine-induced contractions. The effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide was partly inhibited by the neuronal blocker tetrodotoxin and nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor l-NNA suggesting both NO-dependent neural and NO-independent direct effects on smooth muscle. In isolated colonic smooth muscle cells, GLP-1(7-36) amide caused an increase in Gα
