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

backgroundSchizophrenia is a heritable disorder associated with disrupted neural transmission and dysfunction of brain systems involved in higher cognition. The gene encoding dystrobrevin-binding-protein-1 (dysbindin) is a putative candidate gene associated with cognitive impairments, including memory deficits, in both schizophrenia patients and unaffected individuals. The underlying mechanism is thought to be based in changes in glutamatergic and dopaminergic function within the corticostriatal networks known to be critical for schizophrenia. This hypothesis derives support from studies of mice with a null mutation in the dysbindin gene that exhibit memory dysfunction and excitatory neurotransmission abnormalities in prefrontal and hippocampal networks. At a cellular level, dysbindin is thought to mediate presynaptic glutamatergic transmission.

methodsWe investigated the relationship between glutamate receptor dynamics and memory performance in dysbindin mutant mice. We assessed N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid receptor function in prefrontal cortex pyramidal neurons in vitro with whole-cell recordings, molecular quantitative analyses (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction) of the mandatory NMDA receptor subunit NR1, and cognitive function with a spatial working memory task.

resultsDecreases in dysbindin are associated with specific decreases in NMDA-evoked currents in prefrontal pyramidal neurons, as well as decreases in NR1 expression. Furthermore, the degree of NR1 expression correlates with spatial working memory performance, providing a mechanistic explanation for cognitive changes previously associated with dysbindin expression.

conclusionsThese data show a significant downregulation of NMDA receptors due to dysbindin deficiency and illuminate molecular mechanisms mediating the association between dysbindin insufficiency and cognitive impairments associated with schizophrenia, encouraging study of the dysbindin/NR1 expression association in humans with schizophrenia.
