Involvement of Protein Kinase A in Oxytocin Neuronal Activity in Rat Dams with Pup Deprivation.
Article in Neurochemical research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Oxytocin (OT) neuronal activity is the key factor for breastfeeding and it can be disrupted by mother-baby separation. To explore cellular mechanisms underlying OT neuronal activity, we studied the role of protein kinase A (PKA) in OT neuronal activity in the supraoptic nucleus (SON) using a rodent model of pup deprivation (PD) Intermittent (IPD) or continuous (CPD) PD significantly reduced suckling duration and number of milk ejections in lactating rats, particularly those with CPD. In Western blots of the SON, PD increased expressions of OT receptor (OTR) and its immediate downstream effectors, Gαq and Gβ subunits, particularly IPD, but reduced the expression of catalytic subunit of PKA (cPKA). In brain slices, inhibition of PKA blocked prostaglandin E
