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

5-HT7 receptor antagonism has been shown to ameliorate ketamine-induced schizophrenia-like deficits in extradimensional set-shifting using the attentional set-shifting task (ASST). However, this rodent paradigm distinguishes between several types of cognitive rigidity associated with neuropsychiatric conditions. The goal of this study was to test 5-HT7 receptor involvement in the reversal learning component of the ASST because this ability depends primarily on the orbito-frontal cortex, which shows strong 5-HT7 receptor expression. We found that impaired performance on the ASST induced by NMDA receptor blockade (MK-801, 0.2 mg/kg) in 14 rats was reversed by coadministration of the 5-HT7 receptor antagonist SB-269970. The strongest effect was found on the reversal phases of ASST, whereas injection of SB-269970 alone had no effect. These results indicate that 5-HT7 receptor mechanisms may have a specific contribution to the complex cognitive deficits, increasing perseverative responding, in psychiatric diseases, including schizophrenia, depression, and anorexia nervosa, which express different forms of cognitive inflexibility.
