Cortical dopaminergic signaling mediates planning of directional movements.
Article in Science advances, 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
The anterior-lateral motor cortex (ALM) has been extensively studied as a model for understanding the cortical mechanisms involved in planning directional movements. ALM neurons show preparatory activity that predict whether the mouse will produce a left- or right-directed lick. While the neural mechanisms underlying ALM dynamics and their links to behavior are beginning to be elucidated, the sources of this directional activity remain unclear. Here, we examined the role of ALM dopaminergic circuits in mice performing a directional licking task. We report that dopamine (DA) signals and the activity of neurons expressing D1 receptors (D1R
