Tonic contraction develops in the colon during anaphylactic hypotension in anesthetized 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
Diarrhea is a gastrointestinal symptom associated with systemic anaphylaxis and could be induced by increased colonic motility. We determined colonic motility and expulsion by measuring the intracolonic pressure (ICP) and expelled fluid weight in anesthetized rats during anaphylactic hypotension. Substantial systemic hypotension occurred in every sensitized rat after antigen injection. One min after antigen injection, ICP began to increase and remained elevated for 5 min, which was revealed to represent tonic contraction by the video-recording procedure, and was accompanied by increased colonic fluid expulsion. Parasympathectomy composed of subdiaphragmatic vagotomy combined with pelvic nerve transection reduced the duration of the tonic contraction, but not expelled colonic fluid. Furthermore, denervation of afferent parasympathetic nerves produced essentially the same effect as parasympathectomy. Sympathectomy did not significantly change any parameters. In conclusion, the colonic motility during anaphylactic hypotension is characterized by 5-min lasting tonic contraction which is associated with increased colonic fluid expulsion and is involved by parasympathetic nerves, especially their afferents, but not sympathetic nerves, in anesthetized rats.
