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

rationaleDeficits in response inhibition associated with heroin use could last several months after abstinence in heroin users, and their response inhibition can also be interfered with task-irrelevant drug-related cues. However, it is unclear whether exposure to drug-related cues affects subsequent response inhibition in heroin users following abstinence.

objectivesThe present study aimed to investigate how drug-related cues with different durations between stimulus presentations, referred to as stimulus onset asynchronies (SOAs), affect subsequent response inhibition in heroin abstainers (HAs) with different length of abstinence.

methodsSixty-seven male HAs performed a modified Go/NoGo task in which a motor response to frequent Go targets and no response to rare NoGo targets were required and a Go or NoGo target was displayed after either a heroin-related or a neutral picture presented for the 200 ms and 600 ms SOAs.

resultsThe HAs responded significantly faster to Go targets following the neutral pictures for the 600 ms SOA compared to other conditions. They also made more commission errors following heroin-related pictures compared to neutral pictures regardless of the SOAs. The shorter-term HAs made more commission errors compared to the longer-term HAs following the 200 ms SOA, and it was only a trend when the SOA was 600 ms. Additionally, negative correlations between the duration of current abstinence and commission errors were observed following cues with the 200 ms SOA.

conclusionsImpaired response inhibition in HAs can be improved through protracted drug abstinence. However, that effect can be reduced by exposure to drug-related cues, which may increase the risk of relapse.
