The Effects of Rosiglitazone on Task Specific Anxiety-Like Behavior and Novelty Seeking in a Model of Chronic Adolescent Unpredictable Stress.

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
Adolescence is characterized as a period of increased social behavior, risk taking, and novelty seeking, partly due to ongoing maturation in critical brain areas and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) negative-feedback system. During this period there is heightened vulnerability to stress that can drive neuro-immune-endocrine remodeling, resulting in the emergence of maladaptive behaviors that increase susceptibility to alcohol and substance abuse. Here we used a rat model to investigate the impact of chronic adolescent unpredictable stress on a battery of behavioral measures to assess anxiety, novelty seeking, risk taking, depression, and voluntary ethanol consumption while determining whether the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone can attenuate these effects. Adolescent female rats that experienced stress showed increased risk taking behavior and novelty seeking behavior with no change in ethanol consumption. The administration of rosiglitazone during stress induction attenuated stress-induced cortisol elevation, normalized risk taking behavior in a model anxiety, and attenuated novelty seeking in a task-specific manner. Depressive-like behavior was not impacted by adolescent unpredictable stress or the administration of rosiglitazone. The results from this study demonstrate that exposure to unpredictable stress during adolescence increases the prevalence of maladaptive behaviors that are known to increase susceptibility to alcohol and substance abuse, and that rosiglitazone may be an effective therapeutic to attenuate the emergence of select risk taking and novelty seeking behaviors in females.
