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

Many psychiatric drugs are weak bases that accumulate in and are released from synaptic vesicles, but the functional impact of vesicular drug release is largely unknown. Here, we examine the effect of vesicular release of the anxiolytic antipsychotic drug cyamemazine on electrically evoked striatal dopamine responses with fast scan cyclic voltammetry. Remarkably, in the presence of nanomolar extracellular cyamemazine, vesicular cyamemazine release in the brain slice can increase dopamine responses 30-fold. Kinetic analysis and multiple stimulation experiments show that this occurs by inducing delayed emptying of the releasable dopamine pool. Also consistent with increased dopamine release, an antagonist (dihydro-β-erythroidine) implicates nicotinic acetylcholine receptors, which can directly cause dopamine release, in the vesicular cyamemazine effect. Therefore, vesicular release of cyamemazine can dramatically enhance dopaminergic synaptic transmission, possibly by recruiting an excitatory cholinergic input to induce an extra phase of release. More generally, this study suggests that synaptic drug release following vesicular accumulation by acidic trapping can expand psychiatric drug pharmacodynamics.
