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

1. In this study we used ligand binding techniques to determine the affinity and selectivity of endothelin receptor agonists and antagonists in human left ventricle which expresses both ETA and ETB receptors, and compared these results with cardiovascular tissues from rat and porcine hearts. 2. The linear tripeptide antagonist, FR139317 competed for [125I]-ET-1 binding to human left ventricle with over 200,000 fold selectivity for the ETA receptor (KD ETA = 1.20 +/- 0.28 nM, KDETB = 287 +/- 93 microM). The ETA-selective non-peptide antagonist, 50235, competed with lower affinity and selectivity (KDETA = 162 +/- 61 nM, KDETB = 171 +/- 42 microM) in this tissue. BQ123 and FR139317 also showed high selectivity (greater than 20,000 fold) and affinity in rat (BQ123: KDETA = 1.18 +/- 0.16 nM, KDETB = 1370 +/- 1150 microM; FR139317: KDETA = 2.28 +/- 0.30 nM, KDETB = 292 +/- 114 microM) and pig heart (BQ123: KDETA = 0.52 +/- 0.05 nM, KDETB = 70.4 +/- 4.0 microM; FR139317: KDETA = 2.17 +/- 0.51 nM, KDETB = 47.1 +/- 5.7 microM) (n > or = 3 individuals +/- s.e.mean). 3. Although BQ3020 competed with over 1000 fold selectivity for the ETB subtype in human heart (KDETB = 1.38 +/- 0.72 nM, KDETA = 2.04 +/- 0.21 microM) the peptide inhibited only the binding of [125I]-ET-1 at concentrations greater than 100 nM in rat and porcine heart. This is in contrast to the data from the ETA-selective antagonists which indicated the presence of ETB sites in these tissues from animal hearts. 4. The peptide antagonist, BQ788, had a low, micromolar affinity (KD = 1.98 +/- 0.13 microM) using human left ventricle and no significant selectivity for the human ETB-subtype in this tissue. 5. The non-peptide ET antagonists, Ro462005 (KD = 50.3 +/- 9.5 microM) and bosentan (Ro470203; KD = 77.9 +/- 7.9 nM) competed monophasically for [125I]-ET-1 binding sites in human left ventricle. 6. The results show that the ETA antagonists, BQ123 and FR139317, are highly selective for ETA receptors in all cardiac tissues tested, whereas BQ788 has a low affinity and no selectivity in this human tissue. Further we showed that there are species differences in the binding of BQ3020 to the ETB receptors in the hearts derived from human, rat and pig.
