The effects of circadian desynchronization on alcohol consumption and affective behavior during alcohol abstinence in female rats.

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
Disruption of circadian rhythmicity distorts physiological and psychological processes and has major consequences on health and well-being. A chronic misalignment within the internal time-keeping system modulates alcohol consumption and contributes to stress-related psychiatric disorders which are known to trigger alcohol misuse and relapse. While there is growing evidence of the deleterious impact of circadian disruption on male physiology and behavior, knowledge about the effect in females remains limited. The present study aims to fill the gap by assessing the relationship between internal desynchronization and alcohol intake behavior in female rats. Female Wistar rats kept under standard 24-h, 22-h light-dark conditions, or chronic 6-h advanced phase shifts, were given intermittent access to 20% alcohol followed by an extended alcohol deprivation period. Alcohol consumption under altered light-dark (LD) conditions was assessed and emotional behavior during alcohol abstinence was evaluated. Internally desynchronization in female rats does not affect alcohol consumption but alters scores of emotionality during alcohol abstinence. Changes in affective-like behaviors were accompanied by reduced body weight gain and estrous irregularities under aberrant LD conditions. Our data suggest that internal desynchronization caused by environmental factors is not a major factor contributing to the onset and progression of alcohol abuse, but highlights the need of maintaining circadian hygiene as a supportive remedy during alcohol rehabilitation.
