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

Protein synthesis is critical for long-lasting memory formation and synaptic plasticity. However, whether protein synthesis is required for artificially evoked memory retrieval remains debated. To address this, we used a translation-inhibitor cocktail (CKT; anisomycin and cycloheximide) to achieve a more comprehensive blockade of protein synthesis compared to more commonly used anisomycin alone (ANI). When administered immediately after memory acquisition, ANI impaired natural recall while still showing preserved artificial recall. In contrast, CKT treatment showed significant impairment in both natural and artificial recall. Together, these results provide additional evidence that de novo protein synthesis is required for both natural and artificial memory recall.
