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

Modifications of the DNA methylation/demethylation cycle are fundamental for synaptic remodelling in memory-related processes. Cytosine methylation and demethylation marks epigenetically regulate gene expression and play key roles in addiction-like behaviours. DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) catalyse methylation of DNA-cytosines (5mC), while ten-eleven translocation (TET) enzymes catalyse DNA demethylation to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) and further cytosine oxidations. 5hmC is stable and abundant in neurons and regulates gene expression. We examined whether conditioned place preference (CPP) to nicotine regulates 5mC and 5hmC levels in the zebrafish brain. Levels of TET1 mRNA were upregulated while levels of TET2, GADD45, DNMT, and MeCP2 mRNAs were downregulated in the zebrafish brain trained in the nicotine-CPP task. Levels of the
