Glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor decrease may mediate learning, memory and behavior impairments in rats after neonatal surgery.
Article in Brain research bulletin, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Patients who have surgery during the first few years of their lives may have an increased risk of behavioral abnormality. Our previous study has shown a role of glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in neonatal surgery-induced learning and memory impairment in rats. This study was designed to determine whether neonatal surgery induced hyperactive behavior in addition to learning and memory impairment and whether GDNF played a role in these changes. Postnatal day 7 male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to right common carotid arterial exposure under sevoflurane anesthesia. Their learning, memory and behavior were tested from 23 days after the surgery. GDNF was injected intracerebroventricularly at the end of surgery. Surgery reduced GDNF expression in the hippocampus. Surgery impaired learning and memory and induced a hyperactive behavior as assessed by Barnes maze, fear conditioning and open field tests. In addition, surgery reduced dendritic arborization and spine density. The effects were attenuated by GDNF injection. These results suggest that surgery induces a hyperactive behavior pattern, impairment of learning and memory, and neuronal microstructural damage later in the lives in rats. GDNF reduction may mediate these surgical effects.
