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

Drosophila, the fruit fly, is a common model organism in biology; however, quantifying neurotransmitters in Drosophila is challenging because of the small size of the central nervous system (CNS). Here, we develop neurotransmitter quantification by capillary electrophoresis with fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (CE-FSCV) detection, which allows peak identification by both migration time and the cyclic voltammogram, in contrast to traditional amperometric detection which provides no chemical identification. Tissue content of biogenic amine neurotransmitters was determined in a single CNS dissected from a Drosophila larva. Low detection limits, 1 nM for dopamine and serotonin, 2.5 nM for tyramine, and 4 nM for octopamine, were achieved using field-amplified sample stacking by diluting the homogenized tissue with percholoric acid and acetonitrile. Two different strains of wild-type flies, Oregon R and Canton S, have similar dopamine and serotonin levels but different octopamine content. When flies are fed NSD-1015, which inhibits dopamine decarboxylase (Ddc) a synthesis enzyme in the dopamine and serotonin pathways, dopamine significantly decreases by 52%. A genetically altered driver line, Ddc-GAL4, had lower serotonin and dopamine content as did w(118) flies. When the Ddc-GAL4 line was used to produce flies overexpressing the serotonin synthesis enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase (Ddc-GAL4;UAS-Trh), the serotonin tissue content was greater than for Ddc-GAL4 but not significantly different than the wild-type. These results show that CE-FSCV is useful for monitoring the impact of genetic and pharmacological manipulations on the content of multiple neurotransmitters in a CNS from a Drosophila larva.
