Locomotor and discriminative stimulus effects of fluorinated analogs of amphetamine and methamphetamine in mice and rats.

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 prevalence of fluorinated amphetamine and methamphetamine analogs on the illicit market has continued to increase in the past decade. The perceived ability of these compounds to bypass legal regulation has resulted in an increasing popularity among drug users; however, their use produces significant adverse effects, including heart failure, cerebral hemorrhage, and death. This study aimed to investigate the effects of phenyl ring fluorination on the abuse potential of 5 synthetic stimulant compounds: 2- and 3-fluoroamphetamine (FA) and 2-, 3-, and 4-fluoromethamphetamine (FMA). The open-field assay was used to observe the locomotor effects of the compounds and to evaluate effective dose ranges and time courses for psychoactive effects in male Swiss-Webster mice. Discriminative stimulus effects were evaluated using male Sprague-Dawley rats trained to discriminate methamphetamine from saline using an fixed-ratio 10 food-maintained reinforcement schedule in a 2-lever operant box. The compounds tested all resulted in time- and dose-dependent stimulation of locomotor activity. Potencies (ED
