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. Responses to 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), bradykinin and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) were examined in hepatic arteries of the pig 1 h after dissection (fresh) and following 24 h storage in either Ca(2+)-free Krebs solution or the cryopreservative University of Wisconsin (UW) solution. 2. In fresh arteries contracted to approximately 40% of the maximum response to potassium with U46619, a thromboxane A2-mimetic, concentration-response curves to 5-HT (10(-10)-10(-5) M) were biphasic, with relaxation at low concentrations (< 10(-8) M) and contraction at high concentrations. Bradykinin (10(-10)-10(-7) M) produced concentration-dependent relaxation of precontracted fresh arteries with no apparent constrictor response. 3. Following 24 h storage in Ca(2+)-free Krebs solution, relaxation responses to 5-HT and the sensitivity of the arteries to bradykinin were significantly reduced. Storage in UW solution did not affect relaxation responses to either 5-HT or bradykinin. Relaxation responses to SNP (10(-8)-10(-3) M) were unaffected by storage in either solution. 4. Treatment of fresh arteries with NG-nitro-L-arginine (L-NOARG, 10(-4) M) significantly attenuated the relaxation response to 5-HT and displaced the bradykinin concentration-response curve four fold to the right with no affect on its maximum relaxation. 5. From these results it is concluded that endothelial cell function is better preserved during cold storage in UW solution than in Ca(2+)-free Krebs solution.
