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

Ketamine is a synthesized anesthetic drug that was used extensively as a surgical anesthetic in the 1960s. Currently, ketamine is being investigated extensively for its potential as a treatment for depression. However, the addictive nature of ketamine has become an issue that cannot be ignored at this stage. As of now, there is no clear understanding of the changes in striatal metabolites and their relative metabolic pathways under the addictive effect of ketamine. In this study, a stable model of ketamine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP) was established. Non-targeted metabolomics and targeted metabolomics techniques, based on the ultra-performance liquid chromatography-Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QE/MS) and the UHPLC-MS platform, were employed to uncover the metabolic characteristics and neurotransmitter profiles of the striatum after ketamine abuse in mice. Potential biomarkers and related differential metabolic pathways of this model have been revealed. In non-targeted metabolomics analysis, striatal differential metabolites mainly involve pathways related to arginine synthesis, purine metabolism, and morphine addiction. In targeted metabolism, the striatum of mice receiving ketamine showed an increase in the content of the neurotransmitter kynurenine (Kyn) and a decrease in the content of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA). Our study suggested that Kyn and DA metabolism disturbances might be associated with ketamine-induced CPP phenotypes and provided a new perspective for investigating the addiction mechanisms of ketamine.
