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

During the last 20 to 30 years, numerous examples have been provided of neurons and endocrine cells that are able to produce, store, and in many cases release more than one type of signal molecule. Recent models propose that neurons often employ an amino acid, an amine, and one or more neuroactive peptides, and that endocrine cells may release more than one peptide hormone. In neurons, the different classes of transmitter convey fast, intermediate, and slow signalling respectively. However, a series of studies demonstrates that neurons may colocalize more than one neuroactive amino acid, and that endocrine cells may contain an amino acid along with their peptide hormone. These forms of colocalization seem to add new levels of complexity to the role of amino acids in cell signalling, suggesting that, in neurons, amino acids may interact at the receptor level, modifying the effect of each other, and that, in endocrine cells, amino acids may act together with or parallel to a peptide hormone in a paracrine or autocrine manner.
