Effects of cefazolin and cefoperazone on glutamate transporter 1 isoforms and cystine/glutamate exchanger as well as alcohol drinking behavior in male alcohol-preferring rats.
Article in Brain research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Previously, we have reported that cefazolin and cefoperazone treatments attenuated ethanol consumption, at least in part, through upregulation of GLT-1 expression in male alcohol-preferring (P) rats. In this study, we determined the effects of these compounds on the expression of GLT-1 isoforms (GLT-1a and GLT-1b), cysteine/glutamate exchanger (xCT), which is another glial glutamate transporter co-localized with GLT-1, and glutamate/aspartate transporter (GLAST). We found that cefazolin and cefoperazone treatments decreased ethanol intake and upregulated both GLT-1 isoforms, GLT-1a and GLT-1b, in nucleus accumbens (NAc) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) compared to saline treated group. In addition, cefazolin increased the expression of xCT in NAc and PFC, while cefoperazone upregulated xCT expression only in NAc. However, we did not find any significant differences in GLAST expression between the treated and control groups. Overall, our findings suggest that cefazolin and cefoperazone may be considered as potential compounds for the treatment of ethanol dependence.
