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

1. In this study we examined the involvement of 5-HT(1B) and 5-HT(1D) receptors in the vasocontractile response induced by 5-HT(1B/D)-receptor agonist sumatriptan in rabbit common carotid artery (CCA). 2. Immunoblotting experiments using specific antisera against 5-HT(1B) or 5-HT(1D) receptors revealed the presence of one weak (at 93 kD for 5-HT(1B) or at 105 kD for 5-HT(1D)) and one strong band (at 46 kD for 5-HT(1B) or at 52 kD for 5-HT(1D)) in CCA. 3. Sumatriptan-mediated vasocontractile response was antagonized by SB216641 with an apparent pKb value of 8.6, which was consistent with its affinity for 5-HT(1B) receptor. Antagonism by BRL15572 was weak and calculated apparent pKb (6.0) value was consistent with its affinity for 5-HT(1B) subtype (but not for 5-HT(1D) subtype). This result indicates insignificant or no involvement of 5-HT(1D) receptor in the vasocontractile response. 4. The vasocontractile response induced by sumatriptan was highly sensitive to pertussis toxin treatment of CCA. Nicardipine, a calcium channel blocker, also potently antagonized vasocontractile response induced by sumatriptan. 5. 5-HT, but not sumatriptan, stimulated inositol phosphate accumulation in CCA. 6. These results indicate that stimulation of 5-HT(1B) subtype activate a pertussis toxin (PTX) sensitive G protein (Go/Gi) and mediate vasocontraction, in which L-type voltage dependent calcium channels are involved.
