Heterogeneity of tachykinin receptors in the rabbit lung.
Article in Neurochemical research, 1996. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The tachykinins, substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA), are agonists for the NK(1) and NK(2) receptors, respectively. Tachykinins have various respiratory effects, including bronchoconstriction. This study characterizes tachykinin binding sites in the rabbit lung. We hypothesize that (2-[(125)I]iodohistidyl(1))Neurokinin A ([(125)I]NKA) interacts with NK1 and NK2 binding sites in the rabbit lung. The K d determined from saturation isotherms was 0.69 times/divided by 1.14 nM (geometric mean times/divided by SEM) and the B max was 4.15 + or - 0.22 femtomole/mg protein (arithmetic mean + or - SEM). Competitive inhibition studies with NKA, SP and various selective tachykinin agonists showed the rank order of potency; [beta-Ala(8)]-Neurokinin A 4-10 = SP >> NKA >> [Sar(9),Met(02)11]-Substance P. [beta-Ala(8)]-Neurokinin A 4-10, a selective NK(2) agonist, and SP inhibition of [(125)I]NKA binding were best described using a two-site model. Competitive inhibition studies using the selective nonpeptide NK(2) antagonist (SR 48968) and the selective nonpeptide NK(1) antagonist (CP 96,345) revealed Ki's of 5.5 nM and 8.1 nM, respectively. Our data therefore suggest that [(125)I]NKA binds to both the NK(1) and NK(2) receptors in the lung.
