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 respiratory tract possesses a highly regulated innate defense system that includes cilia-mediated mucociliary clearance (MCC). Efficient MCC relies on appropriate hydration of airway surfaces, which is controlled by a blend of transepithelial sodium and liquid absorption, as well as anion and liquid secretion. The latter is mediated primarily by the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel. Succinate is derived from parasites, microorganisms, and inflammatory cells, and its concentration increases in the airway surface liquid during infections, activating the G protein-coupled succinate receptor (SUCNR1), which acts as a succinate sensor. Because MCC is tightly regulated by second messengers, we tested the hypothesis that succinate signaling was linked to CFTR activity. We observed that SUCNR1 activation stimulated anion secretion, increased mucus transport, and induced tracheal constriction in mouse airways. In the
