Coupling Between Subregional Oscillators Within the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Determines Free-Running Period in the Rat.
Article in Journal of biological rhythms, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rats housed in a 22-h light-dark cycle (11:11, T22) exhibit 2 distinct circadian locomotor activity (LMA) bouts simultaneously: one is entrained to the LD cycle and a second dissociated bout maintains a period greater than 24 h. These 2 activity bouts are associated with independent clock gene oscillations in the ventrolateral (vl-) and dorsomedial (dm-) suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN), respectively. Previous results in our laboratory have shown that the vl- and dm-SCN oscillators are weakly coupled under T22 and that the period of the dissociated bout depends on coupling between the 2 subdivisions. Here, we sought to study the behavior of the T22 SCN pacemaker upon release into free-running conditions and compare it to the behavior of the system upon release from typical 24-h (12:12, T24) entrainment. T22-desynchronized rats or T24-entrained rats were released into constant darkness (DD). Activity rhythms in T22 rats rapidly resynchronized upon release into DD, and the free-running period (FRP) of the fused rhythm was longer than the FRP of T24 rats. We then asked whether the in vivo period changes were also present in the ex vivo SCN.
