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

Altered serotonin (5-HT) signaling is implicated in several neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and autism. The 5-HT transporter (SERT) modulates 5-HT neurotransmission strength and duration. This is the first study using rotating disk electrode voltammetry (RDEV) to measure 5-HT clearance. SERT kinetics were measured in whole brain synaptosomes. Uptake kinetics of exogenous 5-HT were measured using glassy carbon electrodes rotated in 500 μL glass chambers containing synaptosomes from SERT-knockout (-/-), heterozygous (+/-), or wild-type (+/+) mice. RDEV detected 5-HT concentrations of 5nM and higher. Initial velocities were kinetically resolved with K(m) and V(max) values of 99±35 standard error of regression (SER) nM and 181±11 SER fmol/(s×mg protein), respectively in wild-type synaptosomes. The method enables control over drug and chemical concentrations, facilitating interpretation of results. Results are compared in detail to other techniques used to measure SERT kinetics, including tritium labeled assays, chronoamperometry, and fast scan cyclic voltammetry. RDEV exhibits decreased 5-HT detection limits, decreased vulnerability to 5-HT oxidation products that reduce electrode sensitivity, and also overcomes diffusion limitations via forced convection by providing a continuous, kinetically resolved signal. Finally, RDEV distinguishes functional differences between genotypes, notably, between wild-type and heterozygous mice, an experimental problem with other experimental approaches.
