Electrogenic bicarbonate secretion in gallbladder: induction by barium via neuronal, possibly VIP-ergic pathways.
Article in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
In guinea-pig gallbladder epithelium, cAMP converts electroneutral HCO3- secretion into an electrogenic process. The effects of blood side Ba2+ (5 mmol/l) on HCO3- transport were investigated in vitro, using pH-stat and voltage clamp techniques to determine unidirectional fluxes of HCO3- and transepithelial electrical characteristics. Serosal, not mucosal addition of Ba2+ elevated short-circuit current (Isc), transepithelial potential difference, and tissue conductance; it inhibited the absorptive HCO3- flux while leaving the secretory flux unchanged. The Isc effect of Ba2+ was inhibited or prevented by tetrodotoxin; D- and L-propranolol; the Cl- channel blocker 4-N-methyl-N-phenylaminothiophene-3-carboxylic acid; the intracellular Ca2+ antagonist, 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid 8-(diethylamino)ocytl ester; noradrenaline, by a yohimbine-sensitive action; somatostatin; HCO3(-)-free solutions. Thus Ba2+ appeared to release a neurotransmitter that gives rise to cAMP synthesis sufficient to turn part of electroneutral HCO3- secretion electrogenic. In a search for the involved signalling pathways, the H1-receptor antagonist, cetirizine, largely and hexamethonium, atropine, atenolol, indomethacin, and trifluoperazine entirely failed to antagonize the Isc effect of Ba2+. Similarly, carbachol, dobutamine, salbutamol, and serotonin were unable to mimic the action of Ba2+ and Isc effects of histamine were small and short-lived. By contrast, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP; 3 x 10(-7) mol/l) completely transformed HCO3- secretion into an electrogenic process. The VIP receptor antagonist (4Cl-DPhe6, Leu17) VIP, delayed and reduced the Isc responses to Ba2+ and VIP. As guinea-pig gallbladder epithelial cells possess cAMP-coupled VIP receptors close to VIPergic neurons, Ba2+ is likely to act by releasing VIP from neural terminals.
