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

Veldoreotide, a somatostatin analogue, binds to the somatostatin receptors (SSTR) 2, 4, and 5. The current aim was to assess its pharmacological activity as an SSTR4 agonist. G-protein signaling was assessed using a fluorescence-based membrane potential assay in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells stably co-expressing G-protein-coupled inwardly rectifying potassium 2 channels and the individual SSTR2, SSTR4, and SSTR5, and in human BON-1 cells stably expressing these SSTRs. Veldoreotide effects on chromogranin A (CgA) secretion and cell proliferation were examined in BON-1 cells. In HEK293 transfected cells, veldoreotide showed a high efficacy for activating the SSTR4; octreotide and pasireotide had little activity (E
