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

Oestradiol and progesterone act in the brain to elicit profound effects on behaviour and physiology. One physiological function of oestradiol is the induction of progesterone receptor (PR) expression in a variety of behaviourally relevant brain regions, including the ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus (VMN), the medial preoptic nucleus of the preoptic area (MPOA), the arcuate nucleus (ARC) and the medial central grey (MCG). Ligand-dependent transcriptional activity of steroid receptors, including oestrogen receptors (ER) and Pr, is dramatically influenced by nuclear receptor coactivators. In previous studies, we have found that two of these nuclear receptor coactivators, steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) and CREB-binding protein (CBP), are important in ER-mediated induction of PR in the VMN and in steroid-dependent behaviours. For nuclear receptor coactivators to function in hormone-dependent transcription in the brain and regulate behaviour, both receptor and coactivator must be expressed in the same cell. In the present study, we used a dual-label immunohistochemical technique to investigate if individual cells in behaviourally relevant brain regions coexpress nuclear receptor coactivators and steroid receptors. Confocal analysis revealed that in oestrogen-primed rats, most of the E-induced PR cells in the VMN (89.6%), MPOA (63%), ARC (82.6%), and many in the MCG (39%), also express SRC-1. In addition, the majority of the cells containing E-induced PR in the VMN (78.3%), MPOA (83.1%), ARC (83.6%), and MCG (60%) also express CBP. These results, taken together with the findings that virtually all oestradiol-induced PR containing cells in the brain express ER, suggest that these neurones represent sites of functional interaction of nuclear receptor coactivators with ovarian steroid receptors in the brain. The present findings provide neuroanatomical evidence that nuclear receptor coactivators are integral in mediating steroid hormone action in behaviourally relevant brain regions.
