Effects of citalopram on dopamine D2 receptor expression in the rat brain striatum.
Article in Journal of molecular neuroscience : MN. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Effects of citalopram on dopamine D2 receptor expression in the rat brain striatum were studied. Repeated administration of citalopram increased the amount of dopamine D2 receptors, the level of dopamine D2 receptor mRNA, and the transcription rate of the dopamine D2 receptor gene. Single administration of citalopram also increased the level of dopamine D2 receptor mRNA with a maximum effect in 2-4 h after the treatment, and the transcription rate of the dopamine D2 receptor gene. The administration of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) also increased the level of dopamine D2 receptor mRNA. These results suggest that the increase in the dopamine D2 receptor expression induced by citalopram may be owing, at least partially, to the stimulation of the dopamine D2 receptor gene transcription, and that serotonin (5-HT) may mediate the effects of citalopram in the induction of dopamine D2 receptor expression.
