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

Depression affects the reproductive axis at the hypothalamus and pituitary levels, which has a significant impact on female fertility. It has been reported that G protein-coupled receptor 1 (Gpr1) mRNA is expressed in both the hypothalamus and ovaries. However, it is unclear whether there is a relationship between Gpr1 and depression, and its role in ovarian function is unknown. Here, the expression of Gpr1 was recorded in the hypothalamus of normal female mice, and co-localized with gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). We established a depression mouse model to evaluate the antidepressant effect of G5, an antagonistic peptide of Gpr1. The results show that an intraperitoneal injection of G5 improves depressant-like behaviors remarkably, including increased sucrose intake in the sucrose preference test and decreased immobility time in the forced swimming tests. Moreover, G5 treatment increased the release of reproductive hormone and the expression of ovarian gene caused by depression. Together, our findings reveal a link between depression and reproductive diseases through Gpr1 signaling, and suggest antagonistic peptide of Gpr1 as a potential therapeutic application for hormone-modulated depression in women.
