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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDelta-opioid receptor (DOR)-mediated modulation of hippocampal neural networks is involved in emotions, cognition, and in pathophysiology and treatment of mood disorders. In this study, we examined the effects of DOR agonist (SNC80) and antagonist (naltrindole) on the excitability of individual hippocampal neurons.
methodsPrimary neuronal cultures were prepared from hippocampi of newborn rats and cultivated in vitro for 8-14 days (DIV8-14). The effects of SNC80 naltrindole on evoked and spontaneous action potentials (APs) were measured at DIV8-9 and DIV13-14, respectively.
resultsSNC80 (100 µM) potentiated spontaneous AP firing and stimulated sodium current; naltrindole had opposite effects. The stimulatory effect of 100 µM of SNC80 was revoked by pre-administration of 1 µM of naltrindole. SNC80 and naltrindole induced similar inhibitory effects on the evoked AP firing and on the calcium current. Further, SNC80 inhibited both peak and sustained potassium currents. Naltrindole had no effect on potassium currents.
conclusionWe suggest that the effects of naltrindole and high concentration of SNC80 on the sodium currents are mediated via DORs and underlying the changes in spontaneous activity. The inhibitory effects of SNC80 on calcium and potassium currents might also be DOR-dependent; these currents might mediate SNC80 effect on the evoked AP firing. The inhibitory effects of naltrindole on calcium and of low doses of SNC80 on sodium currents might be however DOR independent. The behavioral effects of SNC80 and naltrindole, observed in previous studies, might be mediated, at least in part, via the modulatory effect of these ligands on the excitability of hippocampal neurons.
