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

The nucleus incertus (NI) is a discrete region within the brainstem, situated in close proximity to the posterior aspect of the tegmentum. This region of the brain contains a diverse population of neurons that are involved in a range of functions, including stress response, arousal, learning, and modulation of the hippocampal theta rhythm. Additionally, orexin neuropeptides exhibit extensive distributions and overlapping actions within the NI. Nevertheless, the functions of orexin receptors within the NI remain poorly understood. The present study examined the effect of post-training and pre-probe intra-NI administration of SB-33486-A (OX1R antagonist) (12 μg/0.5 μl) and TCS-OX2-29 (OX2R antagonist) (10 μg/0.5 μl) on consolidation and retrieval in a Morris Water Maze (MWM) task. In Experiment 1, rats were trained in the Morris Water Maze (MWM) task and immediately after each training session received injections of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (control group), SB-334867-A, and TCS-OX2-29 into the nucleus incertus (NI). Experiment 2 was analogous to Experiment 1, with the exception that the rats received DMSO, SB-33486-A, and TCS-OX2-29 15 minutes prior to the probe test. In subsequent experiments, the probe and visible tests were conducted following the final training period, and the distance moved, escape latency, and velocity were recorded. In Experiment 3, rats that had undergone training in Experiments 1 and 2 were immediately subjected to trials for the assessment of visuomotor coordination on the visible platform. The results demonstrated that the spatial reference memory consolidation phase was markedly impaired by SB-334867-A or TCS-OX2-29 (P < 0.05), whereas the retrieval phase remained unaltered (P > 0.05). In light of these findings, it can be concluded that the orexinergic system in the NI plays a pivotal role in consolidation in rats through both OX1 and OX2 receptors.
