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

Rapastinel, formerly Glyx-13, is a novel positive allosteric modulator of the N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptor (NMDAR) that counteracts psychotomimetic actions of NMDAR antagonists. We set out to evaluate the effect of rapastinel alone or in combination with the global and GluN2B subunit-specific NMDAR antagonists MK-801 and Ro25-6981, respectively, on neuronal activation in relevant regions using c-fos brain mapping. Whereas rapastinel alone did not trigger significant c-fos expression beyond the prelimbic cortex, it strongly increased the c-fos expression induced by MK-801 in hippocampal, cingulate, and retrosplenial areas. Similar results were obtained when rapastinel was replaced by D-cycloserine. Our results reveal new interactions at network level between NMDAR modulators with possible implications regarding their therapeutic effects.
