Antihistamine induced blood oxygenation level dependent response changes related to visual processes during sensori-motor performance.
Trial report in Human brain mapping, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The histaminergic involvement in selective processes underlying its role in human sensori-motor performance is largely unknown. Recently, selective effects of central H₁-inverse agonism on sensory visual processes were observed in electrophysiological--but not behavioral data; a discrepancy suggested to result from speeded response-choice related processes. This study attempts to establish the effects on visual processes and identify putative compensatory mechanisms related to increased visual and response-choice task demands by assessing H₁-inverse agonism induced changes in blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) response. Twelve participants received oral doses of dexchlorpheniramine 4 mg, lorazepam 1 mg, and placebo in a three-way crossover designed study. Brain activity was assessed for choice reaction time task performance in a 3 T magnetic resonance scanner 2 h after drug administration. Participants responded with their left or right hand and index or middle finger as indicated by the laterality of stimulus presentation and identity of the stimulus, respectively. Stimuli were intact or visually degraded and responses were compatible or incompatible with the laterality of stimulus presentation. Both dexchlorpheniramine and lorazepam affected the BOLD response in the occipital cortex indicating affected visual information processing. Dexchlorpheniramine decreased BOLD response in the dorsal precuneus and left precentral gyrus as part of a motor network, which however might not be interpreted as a compensatory mechanism, but may be the upstream consequence of impaired visual processing.
