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

Many neurons that contain a classical neurotransmitter also contain modulatory peptides, but it has been difficult to establish unequivocally that these peptides are functional cotransmitters. Here, we provide evidence for functional cotransmission in a neuromuscular system of Aplysia. Using immunocytochemical techniques, we localize members of two peptide families, the small cardioactive peptides (SCPs) and the buccalins (BUCs), to a single subset of dense-core vesicles in the terminals of the cholinergic motorneuron B15. We describe a new preparation and method for the direct detection of released peptides and show that the SCPs and BUCs are released when neuron B15 is intracellularly stimulated. Consistent with their subcellular localization, the SCPs and BUCs are released in a stoichiometric ratio that is constant across conditions that change the absolute amount of peptides released. Peptide release is calcium-dependent but does not require muscle contractions. Thus, the release cannot be attributed to a displacement of peptides that may be present in the extracellular space. In previous studies, we characterized the physiological firing patterns of neuron B15. Here, we simulate these firing patterns and show that peptide release occurs. Additionally, we find that significant quantities of material are released under behaviorally relevant conditions. We find that concentrations of released peptides in the muscle are in the concentration range in which exogenously applied peptides exert characterized modulatory actions on muscle contractions. Together, our findings provide strong support for the hypothesis that peptides contained in neuron B15 are functional cotransmitters.
