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

Bisphenol A (BPA) is the most used widely synthetic compound for the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins produced worldwide. Given its androgenic and estrogenic activities, BPA is an endocrine disruptor that is linked to neurological and vascular outcomes, including strokes. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the mechanisms by which a 24 h exposure to BPA (0.002-20 μM) modifies the contractile function of rat middle cerebral artery (MCA) smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Thus, MCA explants were isolated from Wistar rats, and the SMC-MCA vasoactive response was assessed using planar cell surface area, while the gene expression of proteins and ion channel subunits involved in the MCA vasoactive response was evaluated by real-time quantitative PCR. The exposure to BPA (0.02 and 2 μM) decreased the noradrenaline (NA) vasocontractile response and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) vasorelaxant response. Moreover, exposure to BPA (0.02 and 2 μM) increased the gene expression of the soluble guanyl cyclase protein and the large conductance Ca
