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

1. Somatostatin (SRIF) causes a concentration-dependent inhibition of neurotransmission in guinea-pig ileum and vas deferens as well as negative inotropy in guinea-pig isolated right atrium. The SRIF receptors mediating these effects have now been further characterized by use of the peptides BIM-23027, BIM-23056 and L-362855, reported as selective for the recombinant SRIF receptor types, sst2, sst3 and sst5, respectively. 2. BIM-23027 was a highly potent agonist at causing an inhibition of neurotransmission in the guinea-pig ileum (EC50 value 1.9 nM), being about 3 times more potent than SRIF (EC50 value 6.8 nM). In contrast, in both guinea-pig vas deferens and right atrial preparations, BIM-23027 was a relatively weak agonist being at least 30-100 times weaker than SRIF. In guinea-pig atria, BIM-23027 (3 microM) antagonized the negative inotropic action of SRIF28 (apparent pKB = 5.9 +/- 0.1) but had no effect on the negative inotropic action of cyclohexyladenosine. 3. The inhibitory effect of BIM-23027 in the guinea-pig ileum was readily desensitized. Prior exposure to BIM-23027 (0.3 microM) markedly attenuated the inhibitory effect of SRIF but had no effect on the inhibitory action of clonidine suggesting that BIM-23027 and SRIF act via a common receptor mechanism. 4. L-362855 caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of neurotransmission in both the guinea-pig ileum and vas deferens as well as causing negative inotropy in the guinea-pig atrium but was at least 30-100 times weaker than SRIF. In guinea-pig isolated atria, L-362855 (3 microM) did not antagonize the negative inotropic action of SRIF28. 5. BIM-23056 in concentrations up to 1 microM was inactive as an agonist in guinea-pig isolated ileum, vas deferens and atrium and did not antagonize the inhibitory actions of SRIF in any of these preparations.6. The results from this study support our previous contention that the sst2 receptor type mediates inhibition of neurotransmission by SRIF in the guinea-pig ileum. The SRIF receptor type mediating inhibition of neurotransmission in the guinea-pig vas deferens appears different, but similar, to that mediating negative inotropy in the atrium. However the characteristics of these latter receptors appear different from that of the recombinant sst2, sst3 and sst5 receptors for SRIF described for rat and man.
