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 dopamine D₃ receptor has received attention over the last two decades as a target for medications development for substance abuse disorders. Results have remained mixed. Despite emergence of more D₃-selective ligands, possible attribution of observed effects to D₂ receptors remains a concern. Knockout mice may help shed light on mechanisms. Here we evaluated the effect of constitutive D₃ receptor inactivation ("knockout") on the reinforcing effects of cocaine. We tested D₃ wild-type (WT), heterozygous (D₃⁺/⁻), and knockout (D₃⁻/⁻), mice in acquisition and maintenance of intravenous self-administration across a broad range of cocaine doses, using a fixed ratio (FR) 1 and a progressive ratio (PR) schedule of reinforcement, along with parallel food-reinforced studies. Generally, D₃⁻/⁻ mice showed cocaine self-administration comparable to WT controls across assays. Moderate and nonsignificant trends toward lesser reinforcing effects of a low cocaine dose (0.32 mg/kg) were apparent in acquisition and PR studies, consistent with the idea that the D₃ receptor may play a subtle role in the reinforcing effects of low cocaine doses under low FR conditions. However, those effects with cocaine self-administration were more subtle than the lower responding of D₃ knockout mice observed with food-maintained behavior. In addition, the D₃ antagonist PG01037 failed to affect cocaine self-administration under an FR 1 schedule in WT mice. The present data do not support a necessary role for the D₃ receptor in the direct reinforcing effects of cocaine.
