Expression of c-Fos following voluntary ingestion of a novel or familiar taste in rats.
Article in Brain research, 2023. 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
Taste neophobia, the rejection of novel tastes or foods, involves an interplay of various brain regions encompassing areas within the central gustatory system, as well as nuclei serving other functions. Previous findings, utilising c-Fos imaging, identified several brain regions which displayed higher activity after ingestion of a novel taste as compared to a familiar taste. The present study extends this analysis to include additional regions suspected of contributing to the neurocircuitry involved in evoking taste neophobia. Our data show increased c-Fos expression in the basolateral amygdala, central nucleus of the amygdala, gustatory portion of the thalamus, gustatory portion of the insular cortex and the medial and lateral regions of the parabrachial nucleus. These results confirm the contribution of areas previously identified as active during ingestion of novel tastes and expose additional areas that express elevated levels of c-Fos under these conditions, thus adding to the neural network involved in the detection and initial processing of taste novelty.
