Locomotor activity and anxiety status, but not spatial working memory, are affected in mice after brief exposure to cuprizone.
Article in Neuroscience bulletin, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Chronic long-term exposure to cuprizone causes severe brain demyelination in mice, which leads to changes in locomotion, working memory and anxiety. These findings suggest the importance of intact myelin for these behaviors. This study aimed to investigate the possible behavioral changes in mice with mild oligodendrocyte/myelin damage that parallels the white matter changes seen in the brains of patients with psychiatric disporders. We used the cuprizone-treated mouse model to test both tissue changes and behavioral functions (locomotor activity, anxiety status, and spatial working memory). The results showed that mice given cuprizone in their diet for 7 days had no significant myelin breakdown as evaluated by immunohistochemical staining for myelin basic protein, while the number of mature oligodendrocytes was reduced. The number and length of Caspr protein clusters, a structural marker of the node of Ranvier, did not change. The locomotor activity of the cuprizone-treated mice increased whereas their anxiety levels were lower than in normal controls; spatial working memory, however, did not change. These results, for the first time, link emotion-related behavior with mild white matter damage in cuprizone-treated mice.
