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

Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats exhibit behavioral inhibition and model anxiety vulnerability. Although WKY rats exhibit faster active avoidance acquisition, simple associative learning or the influence of proactive interference (PI) has not been adequately assessed in this strain. Therefore, we assessed eyeblink conditioning and PI in WKY and outbred Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Rats were pre-exposed to either the experimental context, the conditioned stimulus (CS), the unconditional stimulus (US), or the CS & US in an explicitly unpaired (EUP) manner, to examine latent inhibition (LI), US pre-exposure effect, or learned irrelevance (LIRR), respectively. Immediately following pre-exposures, rats were trained in a delay-type paradigm (500 ms CS coterminating with a 10-ms US) for one session. During training SD rats exhibited LI and inhibition from US pre-exposures without evidence of LIRR. PI was less evident in WKY rats; LI was absent in WKY rats. Even in the context of reduced PI to CS-alone and US-alone pre-exposures, LIRR was not apparent in WKY rats. The more normal acquisition rates exhibited by WKY rats, under conditions which degrade performance in SD rats, increases the overall likelihood for WKY rats to acquire defensive responses. Enhanced acquisition of defensive responses is a means by which anxiety vulnerability (e.g., behavioral inhibition) is translated to anxiety psychopathology.
