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

Alcohol consumption causes disruptions in a variety of daily rhythms, including the circadian free-running rhythm. A previous study conducted in our laboratories has shown that larval ethanol exposure alters the free-running period in adult Canton-S Drosophila melanogaster. Few studies, however, have explored the effect of alcohol exposure on organisms exhibiting circadian periods radically different than (normal) 24-h. We reared Canton-S, period long, and period short Drosophila melanogaster larvae on 10%-ethanol supplemented food, and assessed their adult free-running locomotor activity and period transcript at ZT 12. We demonstrate that in Canton-S larval ethanol exposure shortens the adult free-running locomotor activity but does not significantly alter period mRNA levels at ZT 12. Period long mutants exposed to larval ethanol had significantly shortened adult free-running locomotor activity rhythms and decreased period mRNA levels, while period short mutants lengthened their free-running rhythm and showed increased period mRNA levels at ZT 12 after being exposed to larval ethanol. These results indicate that the effects of ethanol on the circadian clock might depend upon the baseline circadian period of the organism or that period mutant gene expression is sensitive to developmental ethanol treatment.
