Аmygdala DEGs are associated with the immune system function: A comparative transcriptomic study of high- and low-excitability rat strains.

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
The aim of this study was to investigate differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the amygdala of Rattus norvegicus with contrasting levels of nervous system excitability (high- and low-excitability). Each group consisted of 5 intact rats (n = 5). RNA sequencing was performed at on a HiSeq1500 (Illumina) generating at least 20 million paired-end reads per sample. A total of 257 DEGs were identified: 152 genes were upregulated in high-excitability rats and 105 genes up-regulated in low-excitability rats. Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analyses revealed that the differences in gene expression were associated with immune processes such as antigen presentation and regulation of inflammation. It is also discussed, in conjunction with previous findings, that high-excitability rats may exhibit a predisposition to increased neuroinflammatory activity even without stressor exposure, potentially contributing to varying behavioral responses to stress.
