Differential Regulation of Tachykinin and Opioid System Gene Expression in Brain and Immune Cells of Chronic Binge Alcohol-Treated Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Macaques.

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
People living with HIV have a high likelihood of at-risk alcohol use and are at increased risk for neurocognitive decline. The underlying mechanisms involved in HIV-associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) are not completely understood. Previously, we showed that chronic binge alcohol (CBA) administration produced behavioral deficits in non antiretroviral therapy (ART)-treated simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected macaques. Moreover, we observed that CBA/SIV enhanced neuroinflammatory gene expression and attenuated growth factor signaling in the frontal cortex (FC) and basal ganglia, effects that were partially ameliorated by ART. We hypothesized that the neuroinflammatory and growth factor changes observed could be associated with alterations in opioid, tachykinin, and endocannabinoid gene expression. Furthermore, we proposed that gene expression patterns in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) could serve as an indicator of expression changes in the brain (FC). We examined gene expression patterns of opioid, tachykinin, and endocannabinoid systems in FC and PBMCs isolated from CBA/SIV macaques. Expression of targeted genes as determined by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was analyzed in relation to CBA, ART, plasma, and brain viral loads (PVL and BVL, respectively) and compared with baseline (PBMC) or FC from SIV- controls.
