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

The distribution of supraependymal nerve fibers (SEF) containing serotonin (5-HT) was investigated immunohistochemically in the forebrain of the guinea pig. The highest densities of immunoreactive axons were found in the pars centralis and the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle and also in the superior part of the third ventricle. Because of the special development of the choroid plexus in these ventricular regions, it is suggested that 5-HT SEF might be involved in the regulation of the composition of the cerebrospinal fluid. The ependyma lining the circumventricular organs located in the forebrain, was not observed to receive a significant 5-HT-SEF innervation. In the pituitary gland, a loose but constant network of 5-HT axons, resembling those which course in the anterobasal hypothalamus, arcuate nucleus and internal layer of the median eminence, was observed in the neural lobe. In the epiphysis, immunoreactive 5-HT was detected in all pinealocytes (the entire cell was filled with reaction product) and in fibers running between them.
