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

Maltreatment in adolescence poses a major public health crisis as a primary factor for the development of adult psychiatric disorders. The anterior insula (AI) has been implicated as a hub in adult psychiatric disorders but the gene expression profile of AI in psychiatric disease in either humans or animal models is unknown. RNA sequencing of AI in adult male mice exposed to maltreatment in adolescence revealed altered expression of multiple ribosomal proteins and genes related to neurodegeneration. AI-specific neuronal rescue of a top RNA binding protein target, Hnrnpa2b1, in adulthood after adolescent maltreatment, significantly restored normative social behavior in defeated male mice. Together these preclinical findings reveal a regionally specific molecular pathway in male mice that should be further investigated as a possible target to reduce fear-based symptoms of adolescent maltreatment.
