Cholecystokinin neurons in the spinal trigeminal nucleus interpolaris regulate mechanically evoked predatory hunting in male mice.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Predatory hunting plays a critical role in animal survival. Motion-related vibrissal somatosensory signaling is essential for prey detection and hunting in mice. However, little is known about the neural circuits that convert vibrissal somatosensory cues to trigger predatory hunting. Here, we report that mechanical force onto the vibrissal area of the male mice is a key stimulus for predatory hunting. Mechanically evoked predatory hunting was abrogated by the chemogenetic inactivation of cholecystokinin-positive (Cck
