Maternal brain alterations based on neurotransmitter and hormone receptor distributions over six months postpartum.
Article in Translational psychiatry, 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
The long-term impact of pregnancy and post-childbirth hormonal changes on the maternal brain is yet to be fully understood. Here, we monitored 24 postpartum women longitudinally across six time points over the first 24 weeks following childbirth. By means of structural MRI, we investigated how maternal brain volume, over time and compared to nulliparous women, is associated with receptor distribution maps. While appearing to slow down toward the later time points, the voxel-wise gray matter volumes (GMV) continued to increase for at least 24 postpartum weeks, showing, from the start, a significant association with GABA
