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
The "glutamatergic" granule cells of the dentate gyrus transiently express a GABAergic phenotype when a state of hyperexcitability is induced in the adult rat. Consequently, granule cell (GC) activation provokes monosynaptic GABAergic responses in their targets of area CA3. Because GABA exerts a trophic action on neonatal CA3 and mossy fibers (MF) constitute its main input, we hypothesized that the GABAergic phenotype of the MF could also be transiently expressed early in life. We addressed this possibility with a multidisciplinary approach. Electrophysiological recordings in developing rats revealed that, until day 22-23 of age, glutamate receptor antagonists block the excitatory response evoked in pyramidal cells by GCs, isolating a fast metabotropic glutamate receptor-sensitive GABAergic response. In a clear-cut manner from day 23-24 of age, GC activation in the presence of glutamatergic antagonists was unable to evoke synaptic responses in CA3. Immunohistological experiments showed the presence of GABA and GAD67 (glutamate decarboxylase 67 kDa isoform) in the developing GCs and their MF, and, using reverse transcription-PCR, we confirmed the expression of vesicular GABA transporter mRNA in the developing dentate gyrus and its downregulation in the adult. The GABAergic markers were upregulated and MF inhibitory transmission reappeared when hyperexcitability was induced in adult rats. Our data evidence for the first time a developmental and activity-dependent regulation of the complex phenotype of the GC. At early ages, the GABAergic input from the MF may add to the interneuronal input to CA3 to foster development, and, in the adult, it can possibly protect the system from enhanced excitability.
