Microglial activation drives neuronal dysregulation in alcohol-induced seizure susceptibility.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Excessive alcohol drinking can induce seizures, but the mechanisms underlying acute alcohol-induced seizures remained to be extensively investigated. To investigate this, we established an acute alcohol-treated model and observed a microglial response in the hippocampal CA1 region of mice, which was associated with the enhancement of seizure susceptibility. Furthermore, we found an increased abundance of GABAergic interneurons and a decrease in the activity of CaMKII in the hippocampal CA1 region. Minocycline-mediated microglial depletion fully inhibited the increase in GABAergic interneurons and GABAergic inhibitory synapse formation, and the decrease in glutamatergic neurons and glutamatergic excitatory synapse formation induced by acute alcohol treatment. In conclusion, our findings indicate that dysregulation of synapse formation via microglial activation contributes to acute alcohol-induced enhancement of seizure susceptibility.
