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

Nefazodone is an anti-depressant that interacts with a wealth of pharmacological targets, including some that may exert anti-dyskinetic and anti-psychotic effects in Parkinson's disease (PD), notably serotonin 1A and 2A receptors. In this study, we sought to determine the effect of nefazodone on L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA)-induced dyskinesia and psychosis-like behaviours (PLBs) in the 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-lesioned primate. Six common marmosets developed parkinsonism following administration of MPTP, after which they were treated chronically with L-DOPA to induce stable dyskinesia and PLBs. In behavioural experiments, nefazodone (0.01, 0.1 and 1 mg/kg) or vehicle was administered in combination with L-DOPA and its effects on dyskinesia, PLBs and parkinsonian disability were assessed. The addition of nefazodone 0.01, 0.1 and 1 mg/kg to L-DOPA reduced the severity of peak dose dyskinesia by ≈ 21%, ≈ 39% and ≈ 42% (all P < 0.05), while it did not have any significant effect on PLBs, when compared to L-DOPA/vehicle. Parkinsonian disability was not affected by any dose of nefazodone. Our results suggest that nefazodone may be effective to alleviate L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia in PD, while it may not exert any beneficial effect on dopaminergic psychosis.
