Computational origins of cortical brain circuits for social cognition.
Review in Nature reviews. Neuroscience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
No domain rivals the importance and complexity of our social lives. Given the principle of exaptation in biology - the repurposing of existing structures for new functions - it is likely that brain regions originally evolved to perform computations in one context have been recruited for related computations in other contexts. From this point of view, brain regions for supporting social cognition should also be active in non-social contexts in which the computational demands mirror those of social situations. In this Perspective, we examine the computations required to navigate the social lives of human and non-human primates and identify brain activity patterns responsible for these functions, assessing the degree to which similar activity carries out similar computations in non-social contexts with analogous computational demands. This approach offers a unifying framework that bridges social and non-social domains and has implications for multiple areas within cognitive neuroscience, as well as emerging fields such as human-artificial agent interactions.
