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 postsynaptic scaffolding A-kinase anchoring protein 79/150 (AKAP79/150) signaling complex regulates excitatory synaptic transmission and strength through tethering protein kinase A (PKA), PKC, and calcineurin (CaN) to the postsynaptic densities of neurons (Sanderson and Dell'Acqua, 2011), but its role in inhibitory synaptic transmission and plasticity is unknown. Using immunofluorescence and whole-cell patch-clamp recording in rat midbrain slices, we show that activation of postsynaptic D(2)-like family of dopamine (DA) receptor in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) induces long-term depression (LTD) of GABAergic synapses on DA neurons through an inositol triphosphate receptor-mediated local rise in postsynaptic Ca(2+) and CaN activation accompanied by PKA inhibition, which requires AKAP150 as a bridging signaling molecule. Our data also illuminate a requirement for a clathrin-mediated internalization of GABA(A) receptors in expression of LTD(GABA). Moreover, disruption of AKAP-PKA anchoring does not affect glutamatergic synapses onto DA neurons, suggesting that the PKA-AKAP-CaN complex is uniquely situated at GABA(A) receptor synapses in VTA DA neurons to regulate plasticity associated with GABA(A) receptors. Drug-induced modulation of GABAergic plasticity in the VTA through such novel signaling mechanisms has the potential to persistently alter the output of individual DA neurons and of the VTA, which may contribute to the reinforcing or addictive properties of drugs of abuse.
