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 activation of Calcium-Sensing Receptors (CaSRs) reduces detrusor activity in bladder tissues. Also, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) produces in bladder tissue and regulates the bladder smooth muscles tone. However, there is no evidence of the interaction between CaSRs and H2S in bladder tissue. The aim of this study is to investigate the possible contribution of L-cysteine/H2S pathway in CaSRs-mediated relaxation responses in isolated mouse bladder tissue. CaCl2 (1, 2, 3, 5, 10 mM) was applied to isolated mouse bladder tissues pre-contracted with carbachol (1 microM). CaCl2-induced relaxations were performed in the presence of PAG (10 mM), AOAA (1 mM), and Calhex-231 (5 microM), cystathionine-gamma-lyase (CSE), cystathionine-beta-synthase (CBS) and CaSR inhibitor, respectively. L-cysteine (1 microM-10 mM), an H2S substrate, was used to induced a concentration-dependent relaxant response in isolated bladder tissues pre-contracted with carbachol. L-cysteine induced relaxations were performed in the presence of PAG (CSE inhibitor, 10 mM), AOAA (CBS inhibitor, 1 mM) and Calhex-231 (CaSR inhibitor, 5 microM). CaCl2-induced relaxations were decreased by PAG and AOAA. Also, Calhex-231 decreased the CaCl2-induced relaxant responses. L-cysteine-induced relaxant responses were reduced in the presence of PAG (10 mM) and AOAA (1 mM). Calhex-231 (5 microM) caused a significant decrease in L-cysteine-induced relaxations. Also, Calhex-231 reduced the increase in H2S production in the presence of L-cysteine. In addition, CaCl2 increased basal H2S generation, and PAG (10 mM), AOAA (1 mM) and Calhex-231 (5 microM) reduced the increase in H2S production stimulated with CaCl2. In conclusion, CSE and CBS-derived endogenous H2S formation may, at least in part, contribute to CaSR-mediated relaxation responses, and CaSRs involve in endogenous H2S relaxation responses in isolated mouse bladder tissue.
