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

rationaleOveractivation of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT)(2A) receptors causes impulsivity and attentional deficits. Since 5-HT(2A) receptors are known to entertain antagonistic interactions with metabotropic glutamate (mGlu)2/3 receptors, this interaction may provide an alternative target for a novel class of antipsychotics. OBJECTIVES/

methodsThe study characterizes interactions between 5-HT(2A) and mGlu2/3 receptors implicated in impulse control. Hooded Lister rats were trained in a 5-choice serial reaction time task (5-CSRTT) and treated with the 5-HT(2A/2C) receptor agonist (±)-1-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodophenyl)-2-aminopropan hydrochloride (DOI, 0.1 mg/kg) and the mGlu2/3 receptor agonist LY379268 (1 mg/kg). In addition, associated drug-induced changes in neuronal activity were assessed via c-Fos immunoreactivity (Fos IR), and co-localization of c-Fos and GABAergic markers was detected using double immunofluorescence labeling.

resultsSystemic DOI caused impulsive overresponding that was attenuated in animals pre-treated with LY379268. LY379268 itself had no significant effect on the rats' performance in the 5-CSRTT. DOI enhanced Fos IR within fronto-cortical and limbic brain structures, and this effect was blocked by LY379268 pre-treatment. Double immunofluorescence labeling showed a specific co-localization of DOI-elicited Fos IR with GABAergic (GAD(67)-positive) cells lacking the calcium-binding protein parvalbumin while LY379268 increased Fos IR in GABAergic and non-GABAergic cells.

conclusionOur results suggest that impulsivity is possibly due to a primary increase in Glu transmission mediated via 5-HT(2A) receptor activation. Thus, mGlu2/3 receptor agonists might have some potential for treating motor impulsivity-related impairments while their cognitive enhancing effects were not confirmed in this study.
