Expectation Modulates Hedonic Experiences and Midbrain Responses to Sweet Flavor.
Article in The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience, 2026. 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
Non-nutritive sweeteners are sugar substitutes that may promote weight management by reducing an individual's calorie intake. It is, however, unclear whether (1) sugar and non-nutritive sweetener elicit distinct orosensory responses in the human brain and (2) whether the neural responses to these flavors are modulated by expectancy. Addressing these questions has direct relevance to our understanding of food choice behavior and how it may be modified in dietary interventions. We screened
