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

NMDA and kisspeptins can stimulate gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) release after peripheral or central administration in mice. To determine whether these agonists act independently or through a common pathway, we have examined their ability to stimulate GnRH/luteinizing hormone (LH) release after peripheral or central administration in Kiss1- or Gpr54 (Kiss1r)-null mutant mice. Peripheral injection of NMDA failed to stimulate GnRH/LH release in prepubertal or gonadally intact mutant male mice. Dual-labeling experiments indicated a direct activation of Kiss1-expressing neurons in the arcuate nucleus. In contrast, central injection of NMDA into the lateral ventricle increased plasma LH levels in both Kiss1 and Gpr54 mutant male mice similar to the responses in wild-type mice. Central injection of NMDA stimulated c-Fos expression throughout the hypothalamus but not in GnRH neurons, suggesting an action at the nerve terminals only. In contrast, kisspeptin-10 stimulated LH release after both central and peripheral injection but induced c-Fos expression in GnRH neurons only after central administration. Finally, central injection of NMDA induces c-Fos expression in catecholamine- and nitric oxide-producing neurons in the hypothalamus of mutant mice, indicating a possible kisspeptin-independent GnRH/LH release by NMDA through activation of these neurons. Thus, NMDA may act at both GnRH cell bodies (kisspeptin-independent) and nerve terminals (kisspeptin-dependent) in a dual way to participate in the GnRH/LH secretion in the male mouse.
