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

Neuropeptide Y is one of the most abundant neuropeptides in the central and peripheral nervous systems and its sequence is highly conserved among species. A number of key physiological roles for NPY are now emerging, especially in the control of feeding and energy homeostasis. Other physiological actions of NPY are also reviewed. The metabolism of NPY has been examined by employing certain purified ectopeptidases and by using different membrane preparations. These approaches reveal that NPY is processed at its N-terminus by two proline-preferring aminopeptidases: aminopeptidase P and dipeptidyl peptidase IV. The action of the latter enzyme generates NPY (3-36) which has previously been shown to be a selective agonist at the Y2 class of NPY receptor. Thus, post-secretory processing of NPY can modify receptor selectivity. NPY is found to be resistant to the action of two other membrane aminopeptidases (N and W), and to the action of angiotensin converting enzyme. However, it is a substrate for endopeptidase-24.11 (K(m) = 15.4 microM) which can cleave the Tyr20-Tyr21 and Leu30-Ile31 bonds consistent with the known specificity of the enzyme. In striatal synaptic and renal brush border membranes, NEP is shown to be the major NPY hydrolysing activity but plays a lesser role in intestinal brush border membranes. Knowledge of the proteolytic processing of NPY should aid in the design of stable analogues of this neuropeptide.
