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 central cholinergic system is believed to be involved in the control of many physiological functions and is an important pharmacological target for numerous neurological pathologies. Here, we summarize our recent observations regarding this topic that we obtained by studying genetically modified mice devoid of particular cholinesterase molecular forms. Our results, collected from mice with deficits of functional cholinesterases in the brain, suggest that the increase in the level of acetylcholine (ACh) has an impact on cognition only in the situation when extracellular ACh is low. Furthermore, we confirmed the central control of movement coordination, which could be of importance for the management of motor problems in patients with Parkinson's disease. At last, we provide clear evidence that while the hypothermic effect of the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine is based on a central mechanism, in contrast, the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor donepezil decreases body temperature by its action in the periphery.
