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

Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) play important roles in synaptic plasticity by regulating cAMP signaling in various organisms. The supershort, short, and long forms of Aplysia PDE4 (apPDE4) have been cloned, and the long form has been shown to play a crucial role in 5- hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)-induced synaptic plasticity in Aplysia. To address the role of the supershort form in 5-HT-induced synaptic plasticity in Aplysia, we overexpressed the apPDE4 supershort form in Aplysia sensory neurons. Consequently, 5-HT-induced hyperexcitability and short-term facilitation in nondepressed synapses were blocked. However, the supershort form did not inhibit 5-HT-induced short-term facilitation in highly depressed synapses. These results show that the supershort form plays an important role in 5-HT-induced synaptic plasticity and disrupts it mainly by impairing cAMP signaling in Aplysia.
