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

Nitric oxide (NO) signaling was inhibited via N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) during and after training Aplysia that a food is inedible. Treating animals with L-NAME 10 min before the start of training blocked the formation of three separable memory processes: (1) short-term, (2) intermediate-term, and (3) long-term memory. The treatment also attenuated, but did not block, a fourth memory process, very short-term memory. L-NAME had little or no effect on feeding behavior per se or on most aspects of the animals' behavior while they were being trained, indicating that the substance did not cause a pervasive modulation or poisoning of many aspects of feeding and other behaviors. Application of L-NAME within 1 min after the training had no effect on short- or long-term memory, indicating that NO signaling was not needed during memory consolidation. Treating animals with the NO scavenger 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-imidazdine-1-oxy-3-oxide before training also blocked long-term memory. Memory was not blocked by D-NAME, or by the simultaneous treatment with L-NAME and the NO donor S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine, confirming that the effect of L-NAME is attributable to its effect as a competitive inhibitor of L-arginine for NO synthase in the production of NO rather than to possible effects at other sites. These data indicate that NO signaling during training plays a critical role in the formation of multiple memory processes.
