Gamma-aminobutyric acid interneurons in the rat hippocampal region studied by retrograde transport of glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody after in vivo injections.

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
The retrograde axonal labeling of hippocampal GABA-ergic neurons was studied after in vivo injections of a characterized antibody against glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) into different parts of the hippocampal region. Small injections (50 nl) of undiluted GAD antibody into the area dentata (AD) labelled fusiform and dentate pyramidal basket cells within the AD and fusiform and multipolar cells in subfields CA2/CA3 (a and b) of Ammon's horn. The labeled cells were characterized by intense immunoreactivity of the soma and proximal parts of the dendrites, while the nucleus contained little or none. The morphological appearance and laminar positions of these cells corresponded to hippocampal GAD-positive neurons, as shown previously (Ribak et al. 1978) with immunocytochemistry. Injections of anti-GAD into the medial entorhinal area, subiculum, and CA1 region labeled cells in strata oriens, pyramidale and radiatum of CA2 and CA3a, but injections of the antibody into these latter areas failed to label cells in the medial CA1 and subiculum, thus suggesting a preferential organization of hippocampal GABA neuronal projections in a lateral to medial direction. Injections of preimmune sera or antiserum preabsorbed with the pure enzyme antigen GAD failed to label cells in a manner similar to that described for the anti-GAD injections. These observations, taken together with the finding that injections of anti-GAD into the terminal field of non-GABA-ergic pathways never resulted in retrograde axonal transport of the antibody-antigen complex, suggest that the in vivo injection of GAD antibody is a useful method to study the organization of hippocampal GABA-ergic neurons and their projections.
