1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Assigning valence to stimuli supports survival by promoting approach of stimuli associated with beneficial outcomes and avoidance of those associated with noxious outcomes, a process dysregulated in many psychiatric disorders. The nucleus accumbens (NAc) uses valence information to guide appropriate behavioral responses. NAc medium spiny neurons (MSNs) expressing D1 and D2 dopamine receptors have long been thought to play opponent roles in valence processing, although this has been challenged by recent work. To test this, we used fiber photometry Ca
