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

The ability to generate intrinsic circadian rhythms in electrical activity appears to be a key property of central pacemaker neurons and one essential to the function of the circadian timing system. Previous work has demonstrated that suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) neurons express the fast delayed rectifier (FDR) potassium current and raise questions about the function of this current. Here, we report that mice lacking both Kcnc1 and Kcnc2 genes [double knock-out (dKO)] fail to express the Kv3.1 and 3.2 channels in the SCN as well as exhibit a greatly reduced FDR current. SCN neurons from these dKO mice exhibit reduced spontaneous activity during the day as well as reduced NMDA-evoked excitatory responses during the night. Interestingly, the daily rhythm in PER2 expression in the SCN was not altered in the dKO mice, although the photic induction of c-Fos was attenuated. Behaviorally, the dKO mice exhibited extremely disrupted daily rhythms in wheel-running behavior. In a light/dark cycle, some of the dKO mice were arrhythmic, whereas others expressed a diurnal rhythm with low amplitude and significant activity during the day. When placed in constant darkness, the dKO mice exhibited low-amplitude, fragmented rhythms and attenuated light responses. Together, these data are consistent with the hypothesis that the FDR current is critical for the generation of robust circadian rhythms in behavior as well as the synchronization of the circadian system to the photic environment.
