The serotonin-immunoreactive system of the suprachiasmatic nucleus in the hibernating ground squirrel, Spermophilus richardsonii.

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
In the suprachiasmatic nucleus (NSC) of hibernating and non-hibernating ground squirrels, the distribution of serotonin-immunoreactive (5HT-IR) fibers was studied by the use of the peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique. The cytology of perikarya giving rise to these suprachiasmatic 5HT-IR fibers was investigated in the anterior raphe nuclei. Differences in the immunoreactivity of suprachiasmatic fibers between hibernating and non-hibernating ground squirrels were determined by digital image analysis. The cellular activity was determined by digital image analysis. The cellular activity was determined densitometrically after RNA-staining in anterior raphe neurons and suprachiasmatic perikarya. Abundant 5HT-IR fibers were observed in the medial and ventromedial portions of the NSC. Frequently, the fibers were found in close contact with perikarya of suprachiasmatic neurons. The central portion of the nucleus and the surrounding hypothalamic areas contained only a few scattered 5HT-IR fibers. Inside the raphe nuclei, 5HT-IR fibers and perikarya formed a dense network. In hibernating ground squirrels, the immunoreactivity to serotonin was approximately 45% higher than in non-hibernating controls. This difference is in accordance with signs of higher neuronal activity (40% higher RNA-content, 20% larger cell nuclei) in 5HT-IR perikarya of the raphe nucleus and the persisting activity of the NSC during hibernation; the activity of other brain regions dropped conspicuously in torpid animals.
