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

Resilience has been conceptualized in part as a dynamic process that includes the ability to adapt to stressful conditions. As such it encompasses the extent to which neural plasticity may be promoted. The current study examined metaplasticity by referring to the "plasticity of synaptic plasticity" in a neural circuit composed of the basolateral amygdala (BLA) and the nucleus accumbens (NAcc), using behavioural stress controllability with or without preceding stimulation of the dorsal periaqueductal gray (i.e. dPAG priming). A tendency for increased plasticity in the controllable versus the uncontrollable group was found in both the BLA and NAcc. dPAG priming suppressed NAcc LTP in all groups, but it suppressed BLA LTP only in the uncontrollable group, demonstrating dissociation between either controllable and uncontrollable groups or the NAcc and BLA. Thus, metaplasticity in the dPAG-BLA-NAcc circuit regulated differentially by controllable or uncontrollable stress may underlie stress coping, and thus contribute to stress-related psychopathologies.
