Adenosine A2a receptors modulate TrkB receptor-dependent respiratory plasticity in neonatal rats.

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
Neuroplasticity is a fundamental property of the respiratory control system, enabling critical adaptations in breathing to meet the challenges, but little is known whether neonates express neuroplasticity similar to adults. We tested the hypothesis that, similar to adults, tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB) or adenosine A2a receptor activation in neonates are independently sufficient to elicit respiratory motor facilitation, and that co-induction of TrkB and A2a receptor-dependent plasticity undermines respiratory motor facilitation. TrkB receptor activation with 7,8-dihydroxyflavone (DHF) in neonatal brainstem-spinal cord preparations induced a long-lasting increase in respiratory motor output in 55 % of preparations, whereas adenosine A2a receptor activation with CGS21680 only sporadically induced respiratory motor plasticity. CGS21680 and DHF co-application prevented DHF-dependent respiratory motor facilitation, whereas co-application of MSX-3 (adenosine A2a receptor antagonist) and DHF more rapidly induced respiratory motor plasticity. Collectively, these data suggest that mechanisms underlying respiratory neuroplasticity may be only partially operational in early neonatal life, and that adenosine A2a receptor activation undermines TrkB-induced respiratory plasticity.
