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

In vivo intracellular spontaneous activity in striatal medium spiny (MS) projection neurons is characterized by "up" and "down" states. How this type of activity relates to the neuronal activity of striatal fast-spiking (FS) interneurons was examined in the presence of nigral and cortical inputs using cortex-striatum-substantia nigra organotypic cultures grown for 45 +/- 4 d. The nigrostriatal projection was confirmed by tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactivity. Corticostriatal (CS) projection neurons, striatal MS neurons, and FS neurons were intracellularly recorded and morphologically and electrophysiologically characterized. Intracellular spontaneous activity in the cultures consisted of intermittent depolarized periods of 0.5-1 sec duration. Spontaneous depolarizations in MS neurons were restricted to a narrow membrane potential range (up state) during which they occasionally fired single spikes. These up states were completely blocked by the glutamate antagonist CNQX. In FS interneurons, depolarized periods were characterized by large membrane potential fluctuations that occupied a wide range between rest and spike threshold. Also, FS interneurons spontaneously fired at much higher rates than did MS neurons. Simultaneous intracellular recordings established that during spontaneous depolarizations MS neurons and FS interneurons displayed correlated subthreshold neuronal activity in the low frequency range. These results indicate that (1) the CS projection neurons, striatal MS neurons, and FS interneurons grown in cortex-striatum-substantia nigra organotypic cultures show morphological and electrophysiological characteristics similar to those seen in vivo; (2) striatal MS neurons but not FS interneurons show an up state; (3) striatal MS neurons and FS interneurons receive common, presumably cortical inputs in the low frequency range. Our results support the view that the cortex provides a feedforward inhibition of MS neuron activity during the up state via FS interneurons.
