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
There is as of yet no FDA-approved medication for methamphetamine use disorder. Although dopamine D3 receptor antagonists have been shown to be useful in reducing methamphetamine seeking in animal models their translation to the clinic has been hindered because currently tested compounds can produce dangerously high blood pressure. Thus, it is important to continue to explore other classes of D3 antagonists. We report here the effects of SR 21502, a selective D3 receptor antagonist, on cue-induced reinstatement (i.e., relapse) of methamphetamine-seeking in rats. In Experiment 1, rats were trained to self-administer methamphetamine under a fixed ratio schedule of reinforcement followed by extinction of the response. Then, animals were tested with one of several doses of SR 21502 on cue-induced reinstatement of responding. SR 21502 significantly reduced cue-induced reinstatement of methamphetamine-seeking. In Experiment 2, animals were trained to lever press for food under a PR schedule and tested with the lowest dose of SR 21502 that caused a significant reduction in Experiment 1. These animals responded on average 8 times more than the vehicle-treated rats in Experiment 1, eliminating the possibility that SR 21502-treated rats in Experiment 1 responded less because they were incapacitated. In summary, these data suggest that SR 21502 may selectively inhibit methamphetamine-seeking and may constitute a promising pharmacotherapeutic agent for methamphetamine or other drug use disorders.
