1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Zebrafish are a powerful system to study brain development and to dissect the activity of complex circuits. One advantage is that they display complex behaviors, including prey capture, learning, responses to photic and acoustic stimuli, and social interaction (Dreosti et al., Front Neural Circuits 9:39, 2015; Bruckner et al., PLoS Biol 20:e3001838, 2022; Zoodsma et al., Mol Autism 13:38, 2022) that can be probed to assess brain function. Many of these behaviors are easily assayed at early larval stages, offering a noninvasive and high-throughput readout of nervous system function. Additionally, larval zebrafish readily uptake small molecules dissolved in water making them ideal for behavioral-based drug screens. Together, larval zebrafish and their behavioral repertoire offer a means to rapidly dissect brain circuitry and can serve as a template for high-throughput small molecule screens.NMDA receptor subunits are highly conserved in zebrafish compared to mammals (Zoodsma et al., Mol Autism 13:38, 2022; Cox et al., Dev Dyn 234:756-766, 2005; Zoodsma et al., J Neurosci 40:3631-3645, 2020). High amino acid and domain structure homology between humans and zebrafish underlie conserved functional similarities. Here we describe a set of behavioral assays that are useful to study the NMDA receptor activity in brain function.
