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

Synchronized oscillatory neuronal activity in the beta frequency range has been reported in the basal ganglia (BG) of patients with Parkinson disease (PD) and PD animal models. The coherent abnormal oscillatory activities in the dorsolateral striatum (dStr) and substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr) that accompany parkinsonian states have not been resolved. In this study, we recorded local field potentials (LFPs) in the dStr and SNr of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced dopamine (DA)-lesioned rats in an awake, resting state. Analyses of power spectral density and coherence data demonstrated augmented LFP power in the 24-36-Hz (high beta) range in both the dStr and SNr together with increased dStr-SNr coherence in the 24-36-Hz range, relative to sham controls; both effects were reversed by levodopa (L-dopa) treatment. Partial Granger causality analysis revealed a dStr→SNr propagation directionality of these beta oscillations. These findings support the involvement of increased synchronization of high beta activity in the dStr and the SNr, and suggest that dorsolateral striatal activity plays a determinant role in leading the coherent activity with the SNr in the development of parkinsonian pathophysiology.
