5-HT receptors exert differential effects on seizure-induced respiratory arrest in DBA/1 mice.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Both clinical and animal studies demonstrated that seizure-induced respiratory arrest (S-IRA) contributes importantly to sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). It has been shown that enhancing serotonin (5-HT) function relieves S-IRA in animal models of SUDEP, including DBA/1 mice. Direct activation of 5-HT3 and 5-HT4 receptors suppresses S-IRA in DBA/1 mice, indicating that these receptors are involved in S-IRA. However, it remains unknown if other subtypes of 5-HT receptors are implicated in S-IRA in DBA/1 mice. In this study, we investigated the action of an agonist of the 5-HT1A (8-OH-DPAT), 5-HT2A (TCB-2), 5-HT2B (BW723C86), 5-HT2C (MK-212), 5-HT6 (WAY-208466) and 5-HT7 (LP-211) receptor on S-IRA in DBA/1 mice. An agonist of the 5-HT receptor or a vehicle was intraperitoneally administered 30 min prior to acoustic simulation, and the effect of each drug/vehicle on the incidence of S-IRA was videotaped for offline analysis. We found that the incidence of S-IRA was significantly reduced by TCB-2 at 10 mg/kg (30%, n = 10; p < 0.01, Fisher's exact test) but was not altered by other agonists compared with the corresponding vehicle controls in DBA/1 mice. Our data demonstrate that 5-HT2A receptors are implicated in S-IRA, and 5-HT1A, 5-HT2B, 5-HT2C, 5-HT6 and 5-HT7 receptors are not involved in S-IRA in DBA/1 mice.
