Analysis of adenylate cyclase activity in Japanese children with orthostatic dysregulation.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 aim of the study was to clarify the cause of orthostatic dysregulation in Japanese children by analyzing fluctuations in adenylate cyclase activity. Four types of orthostatic dysregulation in Japan include postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, delayed orthostatic hypotension, immediate orthostatic hypotension, and vasovagal syncope. However, the exact cause of these disorders remains unknown. To identify the cause of these conditions, we examined the resting blood adenylate cyclase activity and basic clinical data (blood pressure, pulse rate) of 30 patients diagnosed with orthostatic dysregulation (21 postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, eight delayed orthostatic hypotension, one immediate orthostatic hypotension, zero vasovagal syncope) and 20 previously reported healthy adults. The results of this study showed that adenylate cyclase activity (isoproterenol and adrenaline) in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome was significantly higher than that in patients with delayed orthostatic hypotension and healthy adults. Moreover, patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome had significantly higher values than healthy adult controls at all five concentration points. Adenylate cyclase activity in patients with delayed orthostatic hypotension showed a trend toward higher values at 10 μM of adrenaline. Furthermore, owing to the higher adenylate cyclase activity in patients with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, their systolic blood pressure was higher than that in patients with delayed orthostatic hypotension. These results suggest that increased adenylate cyclase activity may be related to the onset of orthostatic dysregulation (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome and delayed orthostatic hypotension). In conclusion, adenylate cyclase activity levels may be related to the onset of orthostatic dysregulation, and this can be used as a new strategy for diagnosing orthostatic dysregulation.
