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

Positron emission tomography (PET) provides a unique tool to study the biochemistry of the human brain in vivo. By using PET probes that are binding selectively to certain receptor subtypes, brain PET allows the quantification of receptor levels in various brain areas of human subjects. This approach has the potential to reveal abnormal receptor expressions that may contribute to the physiopathology of some psychiatric and neurological disorders. This approach also has the potential to assist in the drug development process by determining receptor occupancy in vivo allowing selection of proper drug dosage to produce therapeutic effects. Several PET tracers have been developed for histamine H3 receptors (H3R). However, despite the potential of PET to elucidate the role of H3R in vivo, only limited work has been conducted so far. This article reviews the work that has been done in this area. Notably, we will cover the limitations of the first-generation PET radioligand for H3R and present the advantages of novel radioligands that promise an explosion of clinical PET research on the role of H3R in vivo.
