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

rationaleAs enhanced corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) transmission is associated with induction of sensorimotor gating deficits, CRF₁ receptor antagonists may reverse disrupted prepulse inhibition (PPI), an operational measure of sensorimotor gating.

objectivesTo determine the effects of CRF₁ receptor antagonists in pharmacological models of disrupted PPI and to determine if long-term elevated central CRF levels alter sensitivity towards PPI disrupting drugs.

methodsCP154,526 (10-40 mg/kg), SSR125543 (3-30 mg/kg) and DMP695 (40 mg/kg) were tested on PPI disruption provoked by D-amphetamine (2.5, 3 mg/kg), ketamine (5, 30 mg/kg) and MK801 (0.2, 0.5 mg/kg) in Wistar rats, C57Bl/6J and CD1 mice, and on spontaneously low PPI in Iffa Credo rats and DBA/2J mice. PPI-disrupting effects of D-amphetamine (2.5-5 mg/kg) and MK801 (0.3-1 mg/kg) were examined in CRF-overexpressing (CRFtg) mice, which display PPI deficits. Finally, we determined the influence of CP154,526 on D-amphetamine-induced dopamine outflow in nucleus accumbens and prefrontal cortex of CRFtg mice using in vivo microdialysis.

resultsNo CRF₁-antagonists improved PPI deficits in any test. CRFtg mice showed blunted PPI disruption in response to MK801, but not D-amphetamine. Further, D-amphetamine-induced dopamine release was less pronounced in CRFtg versus wild-type mice, a response normalized by pretreatment with CP154,526.

conclusionThe inability of CRF₁ receptor antagonists to block pharmacological disruption of sensorimotor gating suggests that the involvement of CRF₁ receptors in the modulation of dopaminergic and glutamatergic neurotransmission relevant for sensory gating is limited. Furthermore, the alterations observed in CRFtg mice support the notion that long-term elevated central CRF levels induce changes in these neurotransmitter systems.
