Investigation of the effects of 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB) on membrane currents in rat portal vein.
Article in British journal of pharmacology, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
1. The effects of 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid (NPPB) were investigated on evoked and spontaneous currents in freshly-isolated cells from the rat portal vein by use of conventional whole-cell recording and perforated-patch techniques. 2. At a holding potential of -60 mV in potassium-free, caesium-containing solutions, NPPB (10 microM) inhibited calcium (Ca)-sensitive chloride currents (ICl(Ca)) evoked by caffeine (10 mM) and by noradrenaline (10 microM) by 58% and 96%, respectively. 3. At a holding potential of -2 mV in potassium (K)-containing solutions, NPPB (10 microM) inhibited charybdotoxin-sensitive K-currents (IBK(Ca)) induced by noradrenaline (10 microM) and acetylcholine (10 microM) by approximately 90%. In contrast, IBK(Ca) induced by caffeine (10 mM) was unaffected in the presence of NPPB (10 microM). Conversely, IBK(Ca) elicited by caffeine (2 mM) was reduced by approximately 50% whereas IBK(Ca) evoked by noradrenaline (50 microM) was not significantly inhibited by NPPB. 4. In K-containing solutions, NPPB (10 microM) abolished spontaneous transient outward currents (STOCs) and induced a slowly-developing outward K-current. Bath application of glibenclamide (10 microM) abolished the outward current but did not antagonize the inhibitory effects of NPPB on STOCs or on IBK(Ca) evoked by noradrenaline. 5. In caesium-containing solutions, NPPB (30 microM) inhibited voltage-sensitive Ca-currents. 6. In Ca-free, K-containing solutions and in the presence of glibenclamide (5 microM), IBK(Ca) induced by 20 microM NS1619 was enhanced by NPPB (10 microM). 7. It is concluded that NPPB inhibits agonist-induced ICl(Ca) in rat portal vein smooth muscle. However, this agent also inhibits agonist-evoked IBK(Ca) and STOCs. Moreover, NPPB inhibits voltage-sensitive Ca-currents and stimulates a glibenclamide-sensitive K-current and IBK(Ca). The effects of this agent on evoked ICl(Ca) and IBK(Ca) and on STOCs probably involves an inhibitory action on intracellular Ca-stores.
