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

There is evidence to suggest that alterations in neuropeptide Y (NPY) and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) contribute to the escalated voluntary ethanol intake seen following long term chronic ethanol exposure. The present study assessed whether the duration of chronic ethanol exposure and abstinence alters brain levels of NPY and CRF in adult Wistar rats. NPY-like immunoreactivity (NPY-LI) and CRF-LI were determined in the amygdala (AMYG), frontal cortex (FCTX), hippocampus (HPC) and parietal cortex (PCTX) of adult Wistar rats after chronic ethanol exposure, and 24-h and 2-weeks following withdrawal (WD). Chronic ethanol exposure consisted of either a 2-week or an 8-week ethanol vapor regimen. No change in brain levels of NPY-LI, CRF-LI and the NPY-LI/CRF-LI ratio was observed 2-weeks following ethanol exposure, whereas, 8-weeks of ethanol exposure produced a significant effect on NPY-LI expression in the AMYG and FCTX. Moreover, an 8-week ethanol vapor regimen significantly increased CRF-LI levels in the HPC and PCTX. Findings from the present study suggest that a longer duration of ethanol vapor, similar to what is required to enhance voluntary drinking, is required to produce changes in NPY-LI and CRF-LI expression in the adult rat brain.
