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

Despite several overlapping functions of cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1 receptor), somatostatin (SST), and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the hypothalamus, nothing is currently known whether CB1 receptor-positive neurons coexpress SST and nNOS. In the present study, we describe the colocalization of CB1 receptor with SST and nNOS in the rat brain hypothalamus. In the hypothalamus, the distributional patterns and colocalization of CB1 receptor with SST and nNOS were selective and region specific. CB1 receptor and SST exhibited comparable colocalization (<60%) in paraventricular nucleus (PVN) and periventricular nucleus (PeVN), followed by 20% colocalization in ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH). Neurons showing colocalization between CB1 receptor and nNOS in PeVN constituted >80%, followed by 60 and 30% in PVN and VMH, respectively. In contrast, SST- and nNOS-positive neurons displayed comparable colocalization (>55%) in PeVN and VMH, followed by PVN (~20%). In the median eminence, CB1 receptor-, SST-, and nNOS-like immunoreactivity was mostly confined to the nerve fibers. The morphological colocalization of CB1 receptor with SST and nNOS shed new light on the understanding of their roles in regulation of physiological and pharmacological response to certain stimuli in hypothalamic nuclei specifically in food intake and energy balance.
