Social fish have larger brains and greater relative telencephalon sizes: support for the social brain hypothesis from wild, intraspecific comparisons.

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
The social brain hypothesis (SBH) posits that complex social environments drive the evolution of larger brains and enlargement of specific brain regions. Among species comparisons often report contrasting relationships between social complexity and brain size, potentially due to confounding effects of phylogeny, morphology and ecology. Here, we explore this relationship in a single fish species, combining behavioural observations and brain measurements of two wild populations of the cichlid
