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

rationalePhosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) has two conformation states based on rolipram binding, the high-affinity rolipram binding state (HARBS) and the low-affinity rolipram binding state (LARBS); their functions remain to be fully explained.

objectiveExperiments were carried out to determine the roles of the HARBS and LARBS in the mediation of antidepressant-like effects on behavior. MATERIALS AND

methodsTwo animal models sensitive to antidepressant drugs, the forced-swim test (FST), and the differential-reinforcement-of-low-rate (DRL) 72-s operant schedule, were used to examine the antidepressant-like effects of rolipram, CDP840, and piclamilast, PDE4 inhibitors that interact differentially with the HARBS and LARBS, and MEM1018 and MEM1091, two novel PDE4 inhibitors. Drug discrimination vs rolipram and rolipram competition binding assays also were carried out.

resultsIn the FST, rolipram and piclamilast, both at 0.1 mg/kg, produced an antidepressant-like effect, i.e., reduced immobility and increased swimming, whereas, 1 mg/kg of CDP840 or 0.5 mg/kg of MEM1018 or MEM1091 was required to produce a similar effect. Consistent with this, only rolipram and piclamilast produced antidepressant-like effects in rats under the DRL schedule of reinforcement, as evidenced by decreased response rates and increased reinforcement rates. In addition, in rats trained to discriminate rolipram from its vehicle, only rolipram and piclamilast substituted. Finally, [(3)H]rolipram and [(3)H]piclamilast binding analysis revealed that CDP840 and the two novel PDE4 inhibitors MEM1018 and MEM1091 exhibited a lower affinity for the HARBS than did rolipram.

conclusionThese results suggest that the HARBS of PDE4 is the primary conformation important for antidepressant-like effects on behavior.
