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

The present study was undertaken to determine the effects of two classes of calcium channel blockers (CCB), nisoldipine (N) and verapamil (V), on the jejunal uptake of lipids in rabbits. The uptake of cholesterol and long-chain fatty acids into rabbit jejunum was examined after 6 and 36 min of exposure to N or V in vitro ("acute" studies), and after 3-wk feeding of N or V ("chronic" studies). Animals were fed either a low (0.08%) cholesterol diet (LCD) or a high (2.8%) cholesterol diet (HCD), with or without N or V added. Acute in vitro exposure of the jejunum to N or V did not affect the uptake of cholesterol or palmitic acid in rabbits fed LCD or HCD. The effect of N or V feeding depended upon the cholesterol content of the diet; adding N or V to LCD increased cholesterol uptake while adding N or V to HCD enhanced or lowered cholesterol uptake, respectively. Both N and V increased the uptake of stearic acid in LCD. N in HCD had no effect on fatty acid uptake, whereas V lowered the uptake of stearic and linoleic acids and increased the uptake of oleic acid. These changes in lipid uptake were not due to variation in the animals' food intake, body weight gain, or intestinal mucosal surface area. The chronic administration of N or V results in an intestinal adaptative process that alters the jejunal uptake of lipids, the direction of which is influenced by the class of CCB, and by the cholesterol content of the diet.
