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

Cortical inputs to the dorsolateral striatum (DLS) are dynamically regulated during skill learning and habit formation, and are dysregulated in disorders characterized by impaired action control. Therefore, a mechanistic investigation of the processes regulating corticostriatal transmission is key to understanding DLS-associated circuit function, behaviour and pathology. Presynaptic GABA(B) and group II metabotropic glutamate (mGlu2/3) receptors exert marked inhibitory control over corticostriatal glutamate release in the DLS, yet the signalling pathways through which they do so are unclear. We developed a novel approach using the genetically encoded calcium (Ca(2+) ) indicator GCaMP6 to assess presynaptic Ca(2+) in corticostriatal projections to the DLS. Using simultaneous photometric presynaptic Ca(2+) and striatal field potential recordings, we report that relative to P/Q-type Ca(2+) channels, N-type channels preferentially contributed to evoked presynaptic Ca(2+) influx in motor cortex projections to, and excitatory transmission in, the DLS. Activation of GABA(B) or mGlu2/3 receptors inhibited both evoked presynaptic Ca(2+) transients and striatal field potentials. mGlu2/3 receptor-mediated depression did not require functional N-type Ca(2+) channels, but was attenuated by blockade of P/Q-type channels. These findings reveal presynaptic mechanisms of inhibitory modulation of corticostriatal function that probably contribute to the selection and shaping of behavioural repertoires.
