Effects of adenosine on guinea pig pulmonary eosinophils.
Article in Inflammation, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Extracellular adenosine has pharmacological activity on a wide variety of cell types and may play an important role as an inflammatory modulator with both pro- and anti-inflammatory activities. These studies examine the effects of adenosine on guinea pig pulmonary eosinophils. Adenosine alone did not directly induce superoxide (O2-) production. Pretreatment with adenosine primed the O2- response of guinea pig pulmonary eosinophils following the addition of 1 or 10 microM platelet-activating factor (PAF). Priming was seen at adenosine concentrations greater than 1 microM and was maximal at 100 microM. At this maximal dose, adenosine priming increased the O2- response to 1 microM and 10 microM PAF by 86% and 51%, respectively. Priming by adenosine was not seen when ionomycin or phorbol myristate acid (PMA) were used as agonists. In fura-2 loaded eosinophils, the addition of 100 microM adenosine resulted in a small but significant rise in intracellular calcium of 54.4 +/- 9.2 nM above baseline. In contrast, similar adenosine concentrations had no effect on cytosolic calcium levels in guinea pig neutrophils. These data demonstrate a pro-inflammatory role for adenosine in elicited guinea pig pulmonary eosinophils.
