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
Changes in blood volume can be caused by different conditions, such as vomiting, diarrhea, alteration of sodium intake, trauma, or the use of diuretics, which can lead to severe health deterioration. Understanding the mechanisms involved in the maintenance of physiological parameters and the hydroelectrolytic balance of the human body during hypovolemia, can help with preventing and handling these high-risk situations. Hence, this study investigated cardiorespiratory [mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), pulmonary ventilation (VE)] and blood parameters, of sodium depleted rats with furosemide and the roles of the central and peripheral renin-angiotensin and the peripheral vasopressinergic systems in controlling blood pressure in these animals. Different groups under the same conditions received subcutaneous (s.c.) injections of furosemide (diuretic/saliuretic) or vehicle, intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) or intravenous (i.v.) injections of losartan [angiotensin II (ANG II) AT1 receptor antagonist] or saline, and i.v. injections of Manning compound (AVPX, vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist). Sodium depletion increased the VE (708 ± 71, vs. normovolemic: 478 ± 40 mL/min/kg body wt) and did not modify baseline mean arterial pressure (104 ± 4, vs. normovolemic: 105 ± 4 mmHg) and heart rate (334 ± 20, vs. normovolemic: 379 ± 13 bpm). The i.v. losartan (10 mg/kg of body wt) treatment significantly reduced MAP in all groups and elevated HR, with a greater impact in sodium depleted rats before repletion. On the other hand, the i.c.v. losartan (3.3 μg/kg of body wt) and i.v. AVPX (10 μg/kg of body wt) treatments did not alter the MAP and HR in control, sodium depleted, and sodium repleted rats. These results indicate that sodium depletion affects cardiorespiratory control increasing baseline ventilation and peripheral angiotensinergic mechanisms are relevant for maintaining cardiovascular parameters in sodium depleted rats. Besides, this study suggests vasopressin V1 receptors do not participate in the maintenance of MAP and HR in sodium depleted animals with furosemide.
