Cocaine Reduces the Neuronal Population While Upregulating Dopamine D2-Receptor-Expressing Neurons in Brain Reward Regions: Sex-Effects.
Article in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Addiction to cocaine is associated with dysfunction of the dopamine mesocortical system including impaired dopamine-2 receptor (D2r) signaling. However, the effects of chronic cocaine on neuronal adaptations in this system have not been systematically examined and data available is mostly from males. Here, we investigated changes in the total neuronal density and relative concentration of D2r-expressing neurons in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), dorsal striatum (Dstr), nucleus accumbens (NAc), and ventral tegmental area (VTA) in both male and female mice passively exposed to cocaine for two weeks. In parallel experiments, we measured mRNA levels for
