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

Neuronal activity was recorded in the pontine nuclei of developing rats during eyeblink conditioning on postnatal days 17-18 (P17-P18) or P24-P25. A pretraining session consisted of unpaired presentations of a 300-msec tone conditioned stimulus (CS) and a 10-msec periorbital shock unconditioned stimulus (US). Five paired training sessions followed the unpaired session, consisting of 100 trials of the CS paired with the US. The rats trained on P24-P25 exhibited significantly more conditioned responses (CRs) than the rats trained on P17-P18, although both groups produced CRs by the end of training. Ontogenetic increases in pre-CS and stimulus-elicited activity in the pontine nuclei were observed during the pretraining session and after paired training. The activity of pontine units was greater on trials with CRs relative to trials without CRs in rats trained on P24-P25, but almost no CR-related modulation was observed in the pontine units of rats trained on P17-P18. The findings indicate that pontine neuronal responses to the CS and modulation of pontine activity by the cerebellum and red nucleus undergo substantial postnatal maturation. The developmental changes in pontine neuronal activity might play a significant role in the ontogeny of eyeblink conditioning.
