Article in Biological psychiatry, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03302416 (In Vivo Imaging of Corticotropin-releasing Factor - Nociceptin Receptor Interactions), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundAn imbalance between neuropeptides that promote stress and resilience, such as corticotropin-releasing factor and nociceptin, has been postulated to underlie relapse in addiction. The objective of this study was to develop a paradigm to image the in vivo interaction between stress-promoting neuropeptides and nociceptin (NOP) receptors in humans.

methods[

resultsHydrocortisone led to an acute increase in plasma cortisol levels. Regional [

conclusionsHydrocortisone administration increases NOP receptor availability. Increased NOP in response to elevated cortisol might suggest a compensatory mechanism in the brain to counteract corticotropin-releasing factor and/or stress. The [
