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. The changes in the free cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in response to agonists of P2-purinoceptors were studied in myocytes isolated from the longitudinal muscle layer of different regions of the rat gastrointestinal tract (stomach, jejunum, ileum, caecum and colon). [Ca2+]i was estimated by emission from the fluorescent dye, indo-1. 2. ATP and the P2Y-purinoceptor agonist, 2-methylthio-ATP (2-MeSATP), transiently increased [Ca2+]i in single myocytes from all segments of the gastrointestinal tract, whereas alpha,beta-methylene-ATP, a P2x-purinoceptor agonist, had no effect. 3. The rise in [Ca2+]i induced by ATP and 2-MeSATP was maintained in Ca(2+)-free solution but was abolished by depletion of the intracellular store with thapsigargin (1 microM). 4. Single myocytes from stomach, caecum and colon also responded to UTP by a transient increase in [Ca2+]i. 5. Individual myocytes responded to ATP, 2-McSATP and UTP in a nearly all-or-nothing manner. The increasing of agonist concentration enhanced the number of responding cells but did not increase the amplitude of the [Ca2+]i rise. 6. These results suggest that myocytes from the longitudinal layer of gastrointestinal muscle do not possess functional P2x-purinoceptors and that agonists of P2Y and P2U-purinoceptors induced a rise in [Ca2+]i, probably via an all-or-nothing mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores.
