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

Self-injurious behavior (SIB) is a devastating and potentially life-threatening action with high prevalence in adolescents and patients with neuropsychiatric disorders. Accumulating evidence indicates that disruptions in multiple cellular and circuit mechanisms underlie vulnerability to SIB. We used an inducible SIB rat model to study synaptic modification during SIB. At 0.5 and 1 h after bilateral injection of muscimol (1.0 μg/side) into the rat endopeduncular nucleus (EP, a rodent homolog of the internal globus pallidus (GPi)), which induced SIB in rats, expression of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid receptor (AMPAR) subunit 1 (GluA1) and the phosphorylation of GluA1 at Ser831 and Ser845 were tested in the lateral habenula (LHb), ventral tegmental area (VTA), nucleus accumbens (NAc), amygdala, and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) of the rat brain. We also tested if modulation of NAc activity with a GABA
