Decrease in membrane conductance induced by noradrenaline in the smooth muscle of guinea-pig vas deferens.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 1985. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The electrical response of the smooth muscle of guinea-pig vas deferens to exogenously applied noradrenaline (NA) was examined using the double sucrose-gap method. NA evoked a depolarization of the smooth muscle membrane which was associated with an increase in the size of electrotonic potentials. A conditioning depolarization of the membrane induced by current application enhanced the size of NA-induced depolarization, whereas a conditioning hyperpolarization reduced it. When a conditioning hyperpolarization of 25 mV in magnitude was applied, the direction of potential change induced by NA was reversed. These results are discussed with respect to the ionic mechanism of the electrical event in response to NA in this tissue.
