From writing our systematic reviews and meta-analyses as co-authors to receiving the HDR publication prizes for said reviews together last night! Thanks for all your paper screening time @_bluejayray@UsydPsych
It's so comforting to hear @Muireann_Irish talk about uncertainty as part of her career journey to where she is now at #SPPC2021. It's so easy to forget sometimes that the road ahead isn't always straightforward 🥲
Only got 5 mins? No problems - I'll be giving an overview of my systematic review and meta-analysis on animal models of binge eating tomorrow in just 5 mins (🥴) at tomorrow's virtual SPPC via zoom - link here including the program: https://t.co/6nXZDBeu1J
Our final newsletter for 2021 is now free to download! https://t.co/bV2itjkKQ6 Inside, a preview of the 2022 w'shop organised by @MarcoVenniro, a profile on our prez-elect @Flagel_Lab and j-club by @_bluejayray and @simone_rehn on the influence of oxytocin on sucrose intake in 🐀
Friend: How's your research going?
Me: Well the more things I know, the harder I realise it is to know things, so the less I know about the things I think I know, and the more things I know that I don't know
Friend: What
Me: What

Animal characteristics such as sex, species and strain moderated the binge effect size. Greater effect sizes were found in female relative to male animals. The type of binge model, diet used and protocol duration did not moderate binge effect size.

Our extensive systematic review and meta-analysis on animal models of #bingeeating is out ‼️ We report how binge eating was operationalised in 170 studies, binge effect sizes, and predictive parameters. (1/4)

There was a large effect size of bingeing across between-subjects studies (Hedges' g = 1.68) and a small effect size across within-subjects studies (Hedges' g = 0.23).

Excited to share our publication in #Psychopharmacology with co-authors @_bluejayray@BowenLabTweets and Bob Boakes🥳
Circadian regularity in sucrose access doesn't affect intakes but time of day and oxytocin do (continued below 🧵) ⌛️

Using an oxytocin receptor antagonist also didn't block oxytocin's reduction of sucrose intakes. So more work is needed to tease apart how oxytocin reduces sucrose intakes, but it could be an interesting avenue to explore in excessive intakes! 👩🔬
