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

High frequency stimulation (HFS) applied in the brain has been shown to be efficient for treating several brain disorders, such as Parkinson's disease and epilepsy. But the mechanisms underlying HFS are not clear. In particular, the effect of HFS on axons has been intriguing since axonal propagation plays an important role in the functional outcome of HFS. In order to study the potential effect of axonal block by HFS in-vivo, both orthodromic- and antidromic-HFS (O-HFS, A-HFS) with biphasic pulses were applied to the hippocampal CA1 region in anaesthetized rats. Changes in the amplitude and latency of orthodromic- and antidromic-population spikes within 1-min long period of stimulation at 50, 100 and 200 Hz HFS were analyzed. The results show that except for a short onset period, activity evoked by O-HFS with a frequency over 100 Hz could not be sustained. For A-HFS at frequencies over 100 Hz, the amplitudes and the latencies of antidromic population spike (APS) greatly decreased and increased respectively. Significantly larger changes in APS latency were observed in HFS than those generated at low frequency, suggesting a suppression of axon conduction by HFS. Furthermore, the CA1 somata remained excitable while failing to respond to excitation from orthodromic or antidromic HFS. Taken together, these results show that HFS produces an axonal block of both afferent and efferent fibers localized to the area of stimulation since it does not affect the excitability of CA1 somata. This effect of HFS on axons causes a functional disconnection of axonal pathways that is reversible and temporary. The reversible disconnection or temporary deafferentation between putative therapeutic targets could have extensive implication for various clinical applications of HFS to treat brain diseases.
