Taste receptors and their ecological niches: cats, dogs, and other vertebrates.
Review in Chemical senses, 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
Many species of animals rely on their chemical senses to detect tastants and odorants to guide dietary selection, avoid danger, and modulate social interactions, all of which ultimately enhance survival and fitness. Significant progress has been made in our understanding of the 2 major chemosensory systems, taste and smell, through studies in model organisms such as flies and mice, ranging from receptor identification to sensory coding mechanisms. These topics have been extensively reviewed elsewhere. Here, we will instead focus on less commonly used model systems and companion animals, examining how taste receptors have been shaped by feeding ecology over the course of evolution to illustrate the concept that each species lives in its own sensory world, finely tuned to its ecological niche.
