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

Equilibrative nucleoside transporter 4 (ENT4), encoded by SLC29A4, mediates the flux of both 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and adenosine across cell membranes. We hypothesized that loss of ENT4 function in mice would modify the effects of these established regulators of vascular function. Male and female wild-type (WT) and slc29a4-null (ENT4-KO) mice were compared with respect to their hemodynamics and mesenteric vascular function. Male ENT4-KO mice had a complete loss of myogenic tone in their mesenteric resistance arteries. This was accompanied by a decrease in blood flow in the superior mesenteric artery in the male ENT4-KO mice, and a reduced responsiveness to 5-HT. In contrast, endothelium-dependent relaxations of mesenteric arteries from female ENT4-KO mice were more sensitive to Ca
