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

When retatrutide stimulates the glucagon receptor (GCGR), the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor (GIPR), and the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R), then 3',5'cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is increased. We tested the hypothesis that retatrutide like the β-adrenoceptor agonist isoprenaline raises force of contraction (FOC) in isolated electrically driven (1 Hz) left atrial preparations (LA) and exerts positive chronotropic effects (PCE) in isolated spontaneously beating right atrial preparations (RA) from adult CD1 mice. While 100 nM isoprenaline increased FOC, retatrutide (100 nM) failed to increase FOC in LA. In isolated mouse right atrial preparations (RA), retatrutide exerted PCE that were potentiated by 100 nM rolipram but that were antagonized by adomeglivant, a GCGR antagonist. The PCE of retatrutide but not the PCE of isoprenaline were attenuated by H89, an inhibitor of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). The PCE of retatrutide were not weakened by the β-adrenoceptor antagonist propranolol (1 µM) but were blocked by 1 µM carbachol, an agonist at M
