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

The activation of neurons in the subfornical organ (SFO) by angiotensin II (AngII) is well established and is widely regarded as the basis for the AngII-induced increase in water intake. Application of the nitric oxide (NO) donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) led to an inhibition of the spontaneous electrical activity in 96% of the neurons sensitive for SNP (n = 50). In addition, the firing rate in 60% of the neurons inhibited by SNP decreased in response to superfusion with the natural substrate of the NO synthase (NOS) L-arginine whereas 70% increased their frequency after application of the NOS blocker NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA; n = 10). The inhibitory effect of SNP could be mimicked by application of membrane-permeable 8-Br-cGMP. The presence of nNOS, the neuronal isoform of NOS, was demonstrated immunocytochemically and using the NADPH-diaphorase technique on SFO slices. Using a highly selective antibody against cGMP in formaldehyde-fixed tissue, the NO donors SNP, 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), and S-nitroso-N-acetyl-DL-penicillamine (SNAP) caused a strong increase in cGMP formation when applied under the same conditions as used for the electrophysiological recordings. These electrophysiological results suggest an important role for NO in SFO-mediated responses and offer a plausible explanation for the in vivo-observed opposite effects of AngII and NO on water intake.
