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

The olfactory bulb (OB) neurons establish a complex network that ensures the correct processing of the olfactory inputs. Moreover, the OB presents a lifelong addition of new neurons into its existing circuitry. This neurogenesis is considered essential for the OB function. However, its functional impact on physiology and behavior is still unclear. Here, we investigate the mechanisms of OB plasticity that underlie bulbar physiology in relation to severe damage of neurogenesis. The neurogenesis of young mice was altered by ionizing radiation. Afterwards, both multi-channel olfactometry and electrophysiological studies were performed. Furthermore, neurogenesis and differentiation of the newly formed cells were assessed using bromodeoxyuridine labeling combined with a wide battery of neuronal markers. Our results demonstrate a reduction in both neurogenesis and volume of the OB in irradiated animals. The number of neuroblasts reaching the OB was reduced and their differentiation rate into interneurons selectively changed; some populations were noticeably affected whereas others remained preserved. Surprisingly, both olfactory detection and discrimination as well as electrophysiology presented almost no alterations in irradiated mice. Our findings suggest that after damaging postnatal neurogenesis, the neurochemical fate of some interneurons changes within a new biological scenario, while maintaining homeostasis and olfaction.
