Convergence of electrotonic club endings, GABA- and serotoninergic terminals on second order neurons of the electrosensory pathway in mormyrid fish, Gnathonemus petersii and Brienomyrus niger (Teleostei).
Article in Cell and tissue research, 1987. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Previous electrophysiological data indicate that the afferent electrosensory impulses conveyed towards the mesencephalon are blocked in the rhombencephalic electrosensory lateral line nucleus (nELL) by the concomitantly occurring EOD (electric organ discharge) command-associated (corollary) discharge. Electron-microscopic observations and anterograde labeling with horseradish peroxidase show that the primary electrosensory fibers terminate with club endings on the adendritic soma of the nELL cells and form gap junctions with the postsynaptic membrane. The remaining part of the soma and the initial segment membrane of nELL cells are covered with a large number of boutons showing chemical synaptic profiles. The GABA-ergic (gamma-aminobutyric-acid) nature of the majority of the boutons is revealed immunocytochemically by anti-GABA and anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (anti-GAD) antisera, as seen in the light microscope. Electron-microscopic examination confirms the GABAergic nature of most of the bouton-like terminals, whereas club endings show negative immunoreactivity. In addition, serotonin-immunoreactive fibers and boutons are found in the same nucleus, between and next to the nELL cells. It is suggested that the GABAergic endings are the morphological basis for the inhibition that occurs in the nELL and that is mediated by the corollary discharge.
