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

A fundamental question is how memory is stored for several weeks and even longer. A long-lasting increase in gene transcription has been suggested to mediate such long-term memory storage. Here, we used contextual fear conditioning in mice to search for lasting transcription that may contribute to long-term memory storage. Our study focussed on hippocampal area CA1, which has been suggested to have a role for at least one week in contextual fear memory. Using an unbiased microarray analysis followed by confirmatory quantitative real-time PCR, we identified an upregulation of two transcription factors, Fosl2 and Nfil3, which lasted for seven days after conditioning. To our knowledge these are the longest transcriptional changes ever detected in the hippocampus after contextual fear conditioning. Thus, our findings suggest novel transcriptional candidates for long-term memory storage.
