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

Rat pups readily form a 24-h associative odor preference after a single trial of odor paired with intermittent stroking. Recent evidence shows that this training trial, which normally increases AMPA receptor responses in the anterior piriform cortex both 3 and 24 h following training, induces a down-regulation of NMDA receptors 3 h later followed by NMDA receptor up-regulation at 24 h. When retrained with the same odor at 3 h, rat pups unlearn the original odor preference. Unlearning can be prevented by blocking NMDA receptors during retraining. Here, the mechanisms that initiate NMDA receptor down-regulation are assessed. Blocking mGluR receptors or calcineurin during training prevents down-regulation of NMDA receptors 3 h following training. Blocking NMDA receptors during training does not affect NMDA receptor down-regulation. Thus, down-regulation can be engaged separately from associative learning. When unlearning occurs, AMPA and NMDA receptor levels at 24 h are reset to control levels. Calcineurin blockade during retraining prevents unlearning consistent with the role of NMDA receptor down-regulation. The relationship of these events to the metaplasticity and plasticity mechanisms of long-term depression and depotentiation is discussed. We suggest a possible functional role of NMDA receptor down-regulation in offline stabilization of learned odor representations.
