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
It has been proposed that opiates modulate memory consolidation, but recent work has indicated that this effect may be mediated by how the drug is experienced (i.e., passive injections vs. self-administration). Because the dopamine (DA) D1 receptor is involved in processing of learning signals and attribution of salience to events experienced by an organism, two studies in male Sprague-Dawley rats tested the effect of blocking this receptor on modulation of memory consolidation by passive and self-administered heroin, in addition to conditioned memory modulation by heroin-paired cues. Using the object location memory task, Study 1 employed SCH23390 (0, 0.05, 0.10 mg/kg, SC) to modulate enhancement of memory consolidation induced by post-training injections of heroin (1 mg/kg, SC) as well as by exposure to the environment paired with heroin injections (6 pairings, 1 h each, 1 mg/kg). Study 2 was conducted in rats that could self-administer heroin (0.05 mg/kg/infusion, IV) and tested whether SCH23390 (0 and 0.1 mg/kg, SC) could prevent memory modulation induced by a change in schedule of self-administration (from fixed to variable ratio). It was found that while repeated passive injections of heroin retained their enhancing effect on memory, when self-administered, heroin enhanced consolidation of object location memory only at the beginning of self-administration and after a change in schedule. Importantly, SCH23390 blocked memory modulation by heroin when passively administered and when the drug was self-administered on a novel schedule. SCH23390 also blocked conditioned memory modulation induced by post-training exposure to heroin-paired cues. Taken together, these results suggest that modulation of memory consolidation by unconditioned and conditioned opiate reinforcers involve a D1-dependent mechanism of salience attribution linked to the anticipation of drug effects.
