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

In this study, we have examined the effects of metamizol (dipyrone), a non-opioid analgesic which is effective in relieving renal colic pain, on nociceptive responses evoked by stimulation of the ureter, on pyeloureteral motility and on intraureter pressure after ureter obstruction in anaesthetised rats. Metamizol (5- 50 mg/kg i.v.) dose-dependently inhibited reflex pressor responses evoked by distensions of the ureter to pressures of 30, 55 and 75 mmHg for 30 s (ID50 = 8 +/- 1 mg/kg). Metamizol also dose-dependently reduced intraureter pressure during total ureter occlusion (25 mg/kg produced a reduction of 25% in 10 min). However, metamizol at doses up to 50 mg/kg had no effect on pyleoureteric motility (contraction amplitude, rate or intraureter pressure) under normal pressure conditions. We conclude that metamizol has a direct antinociceptive action on pain of ureteric origin, and spasmolytic effects after ureter obstruction (but not under normal conditions) which may also contribute to pain relief.
