Localization of nitrergic neuronal and non-neuronal cells in the ultimobranchial glands of the chicken.

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 ultimobranchial glands of 20 chickens, aged 2-3 months, were investigated for their nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide hydrogen phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d) reactivity and the distribution of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), using NADPH-d histochemistry and NOS immunocytochemistry respectively. Formazan, the blue reaction product of NADPH-d, was localised in the neuronal cell bodies and nerve fibres. Most of the cell bodies were found in the parenchyma. Some of them occurred in the wall of the ultimobranchial cysts, and a few in the immediate vicinity of the blood vessels. Labelled nerve fibres mostly travelled with blood vessels, while few of them appeared in the cystic lining. In addition to neuronal profiles, some C cells, cystic lining, and vascular endothelium were also labelled. NOS staining was found in neuron-like cells and fibres that were confirmed as neurons in adjacent sections stained with antibodies against neuron-specific enolase. It was also detected in cystic lining and in some C cells, but not in vascular endothelium. The distribution patterns of NADPH-d and NOS suggest that NO may play a role in the regulation of the secretory activity of and the blood flow through the ultimobranchial glands.
