Inflammatory Immune Process and Depression-like Behavior in Hypothyroid Rats: A [

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
Hypothyroidism is closely related to mental disorders, mainly depression, through an as-yet-unknown mechanism. The cerebral inflammatory immune process has been implied to play a pivotal role in the onset of affective symptoms in several conditions. In order to gain insight into the mechanism underlying the depressive behaviors in hypothyroid rats, brain microglial activation was evaluated using micro positron emission tomography imaging with a translocator protein (TSPO) radioligand. Hypothyroidism was induced in adult male Wistar rats by administration of 0.05% propylthiouracil in drinking water for five weeks. Open field, forced swimming and tail suspension tests were employed to evaluate the depressive behavior in hypothyroid rats, and the relationship between the behavioral changes and brain microglial activation was evaluated using [
