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 influence of neurogenic versus humoral factors on mRNA levels of several secretory proteins of rat adrenal medulla was studied in vivo. Increased splanchnic nerve activity was generated (reflexly) with insulin treatment. Twenty-four hours after insulin injection, levels of mRNAs encoding neuropeptides (enkephalin and neuropeptide Y) were increased 6.5-fold, whereas those of mRNAs for the major secretory proteins (chromogranins A and B) were unchanged. Bilateral transection of the splanchnic nerves completely prevented this increase. Hypophysectomy decreased levels of chromogranin A mRNA to 32% of control, suggesting a dependence on hormones of the pituitary-adrenal axis. Treatment of hypophysectomized rats with dexamethasone restored chromogranin A mRNA to basal levels. Chromogranin B mRNA levels were not changed by either insulin treatment or hypophysectomy. These results demonstrate (i) that different classes of secretory proteins present in chromaffin granules are regulated by different mechanisms, (ii) that this regulation occurs at a pretranslational site, and (iii) that the relative concentration of secretory constituents of chromaffin granules may vary. The significance of an altered composition of secretory-granule constituents, which may be important in hypotension or stress, is discussed.
