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

Introduction: Dopamine system dysfunction is closely associated with nervous system diseases such as Parkinson's disease and psychiatric disorder. Current research is limited to the individual application of dopamine D1 and D2 receptor-related agents, and the systematic effects of combined dopamine D1/D2 receptor inhibition on neural function remain unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the dose-dependent effects of co-DR1/2I (combined administration of dopamine receptor 1 inhibitor SCH39166 and dopamine receptor 2 inhibitor raclopride) on oxidative stress, learning, memory, emotion, and motor function in the substantia nigra, striatum, and hippocampus of mice. Methods: After administering varying doses of co-DR1/2I through gastric tubes to male C57BL/6 mice, we used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to measure monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B), reactive oxygen species (ROS), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. Behavioral changes were assessed, using open field, rotarod, and water maze tests. Tyrosine hydroxylase positive neurons were labeled with immunofluorescence, and tyrosine hydroxylase levels were detected by Western blot (WB) assay. Results: Low-dose co-DR1/2I significantly increased MAO-B and ROS levels ( Conclusion: This is the first study to demonstrate that co-DR1/2I triggers cognitive and emotional dysfunction by exacerbating oxidative stress and dopaminergic neuronal damage, thereby advancing our understanding of the neurotoxic mechanisms of dopamine receptor antagonists. Future studies are needed to explore targeted antioxidant therapies and receptor-selective modulation strategies to reduce the side effects.
