The barn owl in systems and behavioral neuroscience: Progress and promise.
Review in Current opinion in neurobiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Though well-adapted to their evolutionary niches, animals exhibit a repertoire of behavioral functions that are common across species. Neuroscientific research that promotes the study of similar functions in multiple species, can illuminate shared versus specialized design features of the nervous system, revealing potentially profound insights into the neural basis of behavior and cognition. Here, we advance the idea that the barn owl is an excellent animal model in which to investigate such common functions. We do so by drawing attention to the range of exciting questions that can be asked in the owl beyond those deriving from its evolutionary specializations, by underscoring the variety of complex yet experimentally tractable behaviors it exhibits naturally, by emphasizing its complex network of brain systems, and by highlighting emerging opportunities for the application of modern neural technologies. Our goal is to motivate broader adoption of the powerful barn owl model for behavioral and systems neuroscience.
