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

Hypoxia rapidly reduces force in many smooth muscles and we review recent data that shed light on the mechanisms involved. As many regulated cellular processes are integrated to co-ordinate smooth muscle contractility, the processes responsible for decreased force output with altered metabolism are also likely to be many, acting in concert, rather than the actions of one altered parameter. Nevertheless the aim of this study is to elucidate the hierarchical series of events that contribute to reduced smooth muscle force production during altered metabolism. We conclude that in many phasic smooth muscles the decrease in force can be attributed to impaired electro-mechanical coupling whereby the Ca2+ transient is reduced. A direct effect of hypoxia on the Ca2+ channel may be of key importance. In tonic vascular smooth muscles KATP channels may also play a role in the integrated functional responses to hypoxia. There are also many examples of force being reduced, in tonically activated preparations, without a fall in steady-state Ca2+; indeed it usually increases. We examine the roles of altered [ATP], pH, myosin phosphorylation, inorganic phosphate and proteolytic activity on the [Ca2+]-force relationship during hypoxia. We find no defining force-inhibitory role for any one factor acting alone, and suggest that force most probably falls as a result of the combination of myriad factors.
