Which species the papers used
Each bar is a share of the 37 papers from 2021 to 2025. A paper can use more than one species, so the shares can add to more than 100%.
Species
Tests mentioned alongside the tail suspension test
Each bar is one test, with how many of the 37 papers also mention it, and what share that is. Of these papers, 12 (32%) mention no other test.

Which papers count
A paper counts here when it is animal research and its title or abstract mentions ICV injection and the tail suspension test.
A paper that mentions either only in its methods is missed, so the count runs low. The search terms are in the list of models and techniques and the test list. The full method, with each source and its terms of use, is on our main page, Behavioral tests in published research.
More pairings
Every pairing of a brain technique and a test with 30 or more papers from 2021 to 2025 has a page like this one.

The tail suspension test with animal models
The page on the tail suspension test counts all the papers that mention it, whatever they study. The page on ICV injection ranks the tests mentioned with it.
