Circadian disruption of hippocampus in an early senescence male mouse model.
Article in Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior, 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
Age-related cognitive decline and disruptions in circadian rhythms are growing problems as the average human life span increases. Multiple strains of the senescence-accelerated mouse (SAM) show reduced life span, and the SAMP8 strain in particular has been well documented to show cognitive deficits in behavior as well as a bimodal pattern of circadian locomotor activity. However, little is known about circadian regulation within the hippocampus of these strains of mice. Here we test the hypothesis that in this early senescence model, disruption of the molecular circadian clock in SAMP8 animals drives disrupted behavior and physiology. We found normal rhythms in PER2 protein expression in the SCN of SAMP8 animals at 4 months, despite the presence of disrupted wheel-running activity rhythms at this age. Interestingly, a significant rhythm in PER2 expression was not observed in the hippocampus of SAMP8 animals, despite a significant 24-h rhythm in SAMR1 controls. We also examined time-restricted feeding as a potential strategy to rescue disrupted hippocampal plasticity. Time-restricted feeding increased long-term potentiation at Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapses in SAMP8 mice (compared to SAMR1 controls). Overall, we confirm disrupted circadian locomotor rhythms in this early senescence model (as early as 4 months) and discovered that this disruption is not due to arrhythmic PER2 levels in the SCN; however, other extra-SCN circadian oscillators (i.e., hippocampus) are likely impaired with accelerated aging.
