1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Rodents, particularly mice and rats, are extensively utilized in fundamental neuroscience research. Brain atlases have played a pivotal role in this field, evolving from traditional printed histology atlases to digital atlases incorporating diverse imaging datasets. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based brain atlases, also known as brain maps, have been employed in specific studies. However, the existence of numerous versions of MRI-based brain atlases has impeded their standardized application and widespread use, despite the consensus within the academic community regarding their significance in mice and rats. Furthermore, there is a dearth of comprehensive and systematic reviews on MRI-based brain atlases for rodents. This review aims to bridge this gap by providing a comprehensive overview of the advancements in MRI-based brain atlases for rodents, with a specific focus on mice and rats. It seeks to explore the advantages and disadvantages of histologically printed brain atlases in comparison to MRI brain atlases, delineate the standardized methods for creating MRI brain atlases, and summarize their primary applications in neuroscience research. Additionally, this review aims to assist researchers in selecting appropriate versions of MRI brain atlases for their studies or refining existing MRI brain atlas resources, thereby facilitating the development and widespread adoption of standardized MRI-based brain atlases in rodents.
