Corticotropin-releasing factor and GABA in the ventral tegmental area modulate partner preference formation in male and female prairie voles (
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2024. 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
Introduction: The mesolimbic reward system is associated with the promotion and rewarding benefits of social relationships. In the socially monogamous prairie vole ( Methods: We used pharmacological manipulation to examine how GABA and CRF signaling in the VTA modulate partner preference formation in male and female prairie voles. Specifically, we used a 3 h partner preference test, a social choice test, to assess the formation of a partner preference following an infused bicuculline and CRF during a 1 h cohabitation and muscimol and CP154526, a CRFR1 antagonist, during a 24 h cohabitation with an opposite-sex conspecific. Results: Our study demonstrated that bicuculline, a GABA Conclusion: This study demonstrated that GABA and CRF inputs into the VTA is necessary for the formation of a partner preference in male and female prairie voles.
