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
It has been reported that the loop diuretic frusemide can prevent exercise induced asthma, and that this effect may be due to the inhibition of mast cells in the airway. By using various mast cell secretagogues which increase intracellular calcium via different routes, this study attempted to elucidate the mechanism of the mast cell stabilizing action of frusemide. As well as confirming that immunologically induced histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells was dose dependently inhibited by frusemide (10(-3) - 10(-5) M), the present study has extended the observation to histamine release induced by compound 48/80. The inhibitory potency was however less in the case of compound 48/80 induced release. Frusemide induced inhibition by the two secretagogues was decreased by drug preincubation. In contrast, histamine release induced by ionophore A23187 and thapsigargin was not inhibited by frusemide. The prototype antiallergic compound disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) demonstrated a similar specificity pattern against the various secretagogues. Another loop diuretic, bumetanide, did not show the same results as frusemide on rat peritoneal mast cell degranulation. Hence it is concluded that frusemide does not inhibit immunological activation of mast cells via its diuretic Na+/K+/Cl- co-transporter capacity. Instead, it protects mast cells in a similar manner to DSCG.
