Black tea differs from green tea: it suppresses long-term memory formation in
Article in Communicative & integrative biology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Foods, such as Green tea (GT), containing the flavonol, (-)-Epicatechin (Epi), enhance the formation of long-term memory (LTM) when snails are operantly conditioned in that substance. That is, a single 0.5 h training session results in LTM; whereas similar training in pond water does not result in LTM. It was of interest to determine if Black tea (BT), which is a more popular beverage than GT and which is derived from the same tea leaves, also enhances LTM formation. We found that BT, unlike GT, depressed homeostatic aerial respiratory behaviour and obstructed LTM formation. We used two different methods to determine if BT altered LTM formation and both procedures showed us that BT obstructed LTM formation. We conclude that BT obstructs LTM formation and depresses homeostatic aerial respiration.
