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

Intravenous drug self-administration has been widely used in behavioral neuroscience to model addiction and heightened motivational states; however, the technique is notoriously difficult and its utility has been in steady decline. Here, circumventing prior issues, we established a procedure for intranasal drug self-administration in head-restrained male mice. This procedure does not require surgical expertise or indwelling implants, drives robust schedule- and dose-dependent responding, and results in high blood cocaine concentrations. In addition to improved ease of use and face validity for modeling cocaine use disorder, this work provides an example of volitional nasal drug insufflation by a non-human animal, a behavior canonically thought to be unique to humans across compounds.
