Prelimbic cortex responds to male ultrasonic vocalizations in the presence of a male pheromone in female mice.

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
Sensory signals are critical to perform adaptive social behavior. During copulation, male mice emit ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs). Our previous studies have shown that female mice exhibit approach behavior toward sound sources of male USVs and that, after being exposed to a male pheromone, exocrine gland-secreting peptide 1 (ESP1), female mice exhibited a preference toward a particular type of male USVs. These findings suggest that male USVs modulate female courtship behavior. However, it remains unclear which brain regions and what cell types of neurons are involved in neuronal processing of male USVs. To clarify this issue, immediate early gene analysis, behavioral analysis, and neurochemical analysis were performed. The
