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. The study was undertaken to compare the beta-adrenoceptor-mediated facilitation of noradrenaline release in the tail artery of vehicle-treated rats and of rats rendered hypertensive by chronic administration of 1,3-dipropyl-8-sulphophenylxanthine (DPSPX). Artery rings were loaded with [3H]-noradrenaline, and five periods of electrical stimulation (1 Hz for 2 min) were applied. To eliminate the influence of prejunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors, the tissues were pre-exposed to 1 microM phenoxybenzamine. 2. Isoprenaline caused a concentration-dependent increase of tritium overflow elicited by electrical stimulation. It was more effective in arteries from DPSPX-treated than in those from vehicle-treated rats; isoprenaline (27.8 nM) increased by 30% tritium overflow in vessels from vehicle-treated rats whereas isoprenaline (7.0 nM) produced a 30% increase in vessels from DPSPX-treated animals. Furthermore, the maximal effect of isoprenaline was a 32.6% increase in control rats but a 48.6% increase in DPSPX-treated rats. 3. These results show that the sympathetic nerve endings of the rat tail artery are endowed with prejunctional beta-adrenoceptors which mediate facilitation of noradrenaline release elicited by electrical stimulation. They also suggest that adenosine receptors and beta-adrenoceptors interact at the prejunctional level and that impairment of this 'talk' may lead to the development of a hypertensive state.
