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

aimsTo test whether neurite-inhibitory plasma autoantibodies in chronic schizophrenia activate Gq/11- and Gi- coupled signaling pathways downstream of 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor activation; and for modulation of serotonergic signaling by the metabotropic 2/3 receptor agonist LY379268.

methodsPlasma from five older adults with chronic schizophrenia and eight age-matched patients having another neuropsychiatric, immune or metabolic disorder was subjected to Protein-A affinity chromatography to obtain IgG autoantibodies. Mean neurite retraction (5 minutes) or cell survival (24 hours) was determined in mouse N2A neuroblastoma cells incubated with autoantibodies in the presence or absence of specific antagonists of the Gq/11/PLC/IP3R signaling pathway, Gi-coupled, beta-arrestin2-directed pathways, or LY379268.

resultsChronic schizophrenia plasma autoantibodies- mediated dose- and time-dependent acute N2A neurite retraction was completely prevented by M100907, a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor antagonist. LY379268 promoted autoantibody-induced neurite retraction causing a shift-to-the-left in the dose-response curve. Antagonists of the RhoA/Rho kinase and Gq/11/PLC/IP3R signaling pathways blocked autoantibody-mediated neurite retraction. Chronic schizophrenia plasma autoantibodies mediated increased N2A cell survival which was blocked by LY379268, pertussis toxin, and antagonists of PI3-kinase- mediated survival signaling.

conclusionSchizophrenia plasma autoantibodies activate the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor positively coupled to Gq/11/PLC/IP3R pathway and RhoA/Rho kinase signaling activation in promoting acute N2A cell neurite retraction. Autoantibodies in a subset of patients experiencing hallucinations promoted increased N2A cell survival mediated (in part) via a pertussis-toxin sensitive, Gi-coupled, PI3-kinase-dependent mechanism. Positive modulation of 5-HT2AR-mediated neurite retraction by LY379268 suggests the autoantibodies may target (in part) the 5-HT2AR/mGlu2R heteromer.
