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
The influence of a new beta-blocker, celiprolol, on the direct dromotropic effects of the Ca antagonists, diltiazem and nifedipine, on atrioventricular (AV) conduction was estimated in the canine isolated, blood-perfused AV node preparation. Diltiazem (1-10 micrograms) and nifedipine (0.3-3 micrograms) injected i.a. into the AV node artery dose dependently prolonged the atrio-His (AH) interval (5-39 msec and 7-51 msec) in the AV mode preparation. When celiprolol (1 and 10 mg/kg) was given i.v. in the support dog, the AH interval in the AV node preparation was transiently shortened and then maintained constant as a control. These doses of i.v. celiprolol completely abolished the isoproterenol-induced decrease in the AH interval (28 msec at 0.03 microgram, i.a.) and AV nodal tachycardia. In the presence of celiprolol, the same doses of i.a. diltiazem and nifedipine increased the AH interval by the same amounts (6-43 msec and 8-53 msec) as the control. The incidence of second degree AV conduction block produced by diltiazem (2 in 5 AV node preparations at 10 micrograms) and nifedipine (2 in 6 preparations at 3 micrograms) was not changed by celiprolol. In the second experiments, diltiazem (30-300 micrograms/kg) and nifedipine (3-30 micrograms/kg), given i.v. in an open-chest in situ vagotomized dog, dose dependently increased AV conduction time (AVCT; 2-30 msec and 1-12 msec). Celiprolol 1 and 10 mg/kg i.v., which suppressed the isoproterenol-induced decrease in AVCT (32 msec at 0.3 mu/kg i.v.) and AV nodal tachycardia (4 in 6 in situ hearts), potentiated the prolongation of AVCT by the same doses of diltiazem (11-50 msec) and nifedipine (3-40 msec). The incidence of second degree AV conduction block produced by i.v., diltiazem (1 in 5 in situ hearts at 300 micrograms/kg) and nifedipine (0 in 6 in situ hearts at 30 micrograms/kg) was aggravated (4 in 5 and 3 in 6 in situ hearts) after i.v. celiprolol. These results indicate that although celiprolol does not affect the direct negative dromotropic effects of the Ca antagonists, AV block could easily be produced when celiprolol eliminates tonic adrenergic influences in vivo.
