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

Addiction to prescribed opioids including oxycodone has reached tragic levels. Herein, we investigated the relevance of fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and immediate early genes (IEGs) to withdrawal-induced incubation of drug craving following escalated oxycodone self-administration (SA). Rats were trained to self-administer oxycodone for 4 weeks. Seeking tests were performed at various intervals during 1 month of drug withdrawal. Rats were euthanized 1 day after the last test and nucleus accumbens and dorsal striata were dissected for use in PCR analyses. Rats given long access (LgA, 9 h), but not short access (ShA, 3 h) to drug escalated their oxycodone intake and exhibited incubation of oxycodone seeking during withdrawal. These rats exhibited dose-dependent increases in fgf2 expression in the dorsal striatum. Fgfr2 expression was also significantly increased in the striatum in LgA, but not ShA groups. Similarly, striatal c-fos and junB mRNA levels showed greater increases in LgA rats. The observations that fgf mRNA levels were more altered in the dorsal striatum than in the NAc of LgA rats suggest that changes in striatal FGF expression may be more salient to incubation of oxycodone craving than alterations in the NAc. Targeting FGF signaling pathways might offer novel strategies against opioid addiction.
