Midbrain cholinergic neurons signal negative feedback to promote behavioral flexibility.
Article in Trends in neurosciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cholinergic neurons of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) are relevant for adaptive behavior. In a recent study, Ruan et al. revealed that PPN cholinergic neurons signal negative feedback during reward omission after contingency changes, which is necessary for switching to new behavioral strategies.
