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

aimThis study examined the efficacy of sertindole in comparison with a selective 5-HT(6) and a 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonist to reverse sub-chronic phencyclidine (PCP)-induced cognitive deficits in female rats.

methodsIn the first test, adult female hooded Lister rats were trained to perform an operant reversal learning task to 90% criterion. After training, rats were treated with PCP at 2 mg/kg (i.p.) or vehicle twice daily for 7 days, followed by 7 days washout. For the second test, novel object recognition (NOR), a separate batch of rats, had the same sub-chronic PCP dosing regime and washout period. In reversal learning, rats were treated acutely with sertindole, the selective 5-HT(2A) receptor antagonist M100.907 or the selective 5-HT(6) receptor antagonist SB-742457.

resultsThe PCP-induced selective reversal learning deficit was significantly improved by sertindole, M100.907 and SB-742457. Sertindole also significantly improved the sub-chronic PCP-induced deficit in NOR, a test of episodic memory following a 1 min and 1 h inter-trial interval. In vivo binding studies showed that the dose-response relationship for sertindole in this study most closely correlates with affinity for 5-HT(6) receptor in vivo binding in striatum, although contribution from binding to 5-HT(2A) receptors in vivo in cortex may also provide an important mechanism.

conclusionThe efficacies of selective 5-HT(2A) and 5-HT(6) receptor antagonists suggest potential mechanisms mediating the effects of sertindole, which has high affinity for these 5-HT receptor subtypes. The sertindole-induced improvement in cognitive function in this animal model suggests relevance for the management of cognitive deficit symptoms in schizophrenia.
