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. Changes in membrane potential of the guinea-pig isolated taenia caeci evoked by single stimuli have been investigated using intracellular recording techniques. Nifedipine (10 microM) was used to arrest spontaneous muscle action potentials. Single stimuli elicited complex junction potentials which consisted of both excitatory and inhibitory components. 2. The excitatory component of the compound junction potential was unaffected by hexamethonium (100 microM) but abolished by atropine (1 microM) and omega-conotoxin GVIA (10-100 nM). 3. In the presence of atropine, single stimuli elicited fast inhibitory junction potentials (IJPs). IJPs were sometimes biphasic during repolarization with a noticeable 'slow tail'. Apamin (30-100 nM) potently inhibited the fast IJP and revealed an underlying slow IJP. 4. The fast IJP was also abolished by omega-conotoxin GVIA (100 nM). However, the slow IJP was insensitive to omega-conotoxin GVIA but was abolished by cadmium (30 microM). 5. Guanethidine (3 microM) and N omega-nitro-L-arginine (10-100 microM) had no detectable effects on either of the IJPs. The dye Reactive Blue 2 reduced the amplitude of the fast IJP but this reduction was associated with a membrane hyperpolarization. 6. The existence of two distinct IJPs in the guinea-pig taenia caeci has been demonstrated. The ability of omega-conotoxin GVIA to selectively abolish the fast IJP leaving the slow IJP intact suggests that separate nerves are involved in mediating these responses.
