Endogenous nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2 do not regulate the synthesis of each other in interleukin-1 beta-stimulated rat articular cartilage.

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
Increased levels of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandins (PG) are present in the synovial fluid from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1) has been shown to induce the synthesis of both of these mediators. The present work was designed to study the interactions of NO and PGE2 synthesis induced by IL-1 in rat articular cartilage. Incubation of intact cartilage with IL-1 resulted in different dose response curves for NO and PGE2 synthesis. Two inhibitors of nitric oxide synthase N-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) and L-N-iminoethylornithine, (L-NIO), abolished the IL-1-induced nitrite production but failed to have any influence on the PGE2 synthesis. Exogenous NO, produced by two chemically different NO-releasing compounds (SIN-1 and GEA 3175) had no effect on PGE2 synthesis in articular cartilage. Dexamethasone and ketoprofen inhibited IL-1 induced PGE2 production, while nitrite synthesis remained unaltered. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) reduced PGE2 synthesis and had a slight inhibitory action also on NO production. In conclusion, our results show, that IL-1 induces the synthesis of both PGE2 and NO in articular cartilage but these two inflammatory mediators are not mediating the synthesis of one another.
