Environmental enrichment and a selective metabotropic glutamate receptor
Article in Pharmacology, biochemistry, and behavior, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.
Who cites it
7 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 11 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
A challenge for developing effective treatments for substance use disorders (SUDs) is understanding how environmental variables alter the efficacy of therapeutics. Environmental enrichment (EC) enhances brain development and protects against behaviors associated with drug abuse vulnerability when compared to rats reared in isolation (IC) or standard conditions (SC). EC rearing enhances the expression and function of metabotropic glutamate receptor
