Effects of 4-DAMP on allergic rhinitis in guinea pigs and its potential mechanism.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a non-infectious chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa mainly mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE), which seriously affects the life quality of affected patients. This study aimed to observe the effects of 1,1-dimethyl-4-diphenylacetoxypiperidinium iodide (4-DAMP; a selective M3 receptor antagonist) on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced AR guinea pigs, and to explore its potential mechanism of involvement. Methods: An AR model was established by inducing male guinea pigs (4-6 weeks of age) with OVA. AR guinea pigs were randomly divided into a model group, 0.6 mg/kg ipratropium bromide (IB) group, 0.12 and 0.6 mg/kg 4-DAMP group (n=18). The 0.6 mg/kg IB group, 0.12 and 0.6 mg/kg 4-DAMP group animals were treated with IB (0.6 mg/kg) and 4-DAMP (0.12 or 0.6 mg/kg) by intranasal instillation per nostril daily. Animals in the model group and normal group were treated with saline as control. The AR symptom scores were counted and nasal secretion weights were measured. Histopathological methods were used to observe nasal mucosa. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the levels of histamine and cytokines. Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were used to detect the expressions of mucin 5AC (MUC5AC), matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9), and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Results: Compared with model group animals, the AR symptom scores and nasal secretion weights of animals treated with 4-DAMP were reduced significantly, goblet cell metaplasia was reversed, and eosinophil infiltration was visibly alleviated. The levels of histamine and cytokines in nasal lavage fluid (NLF) were decreased, and the protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) expressions of MUC5AC, MMP9, and EGFR were inhibited. Conclusions: Treatment with 4-DAMP has a certain effect on AR, especially for mucus hypersecretion, which provides a new idea for clinical treatment of AR.
