Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Specific pharmacological agents, such as ketamine, tamoxifen, and erythropoietin, have been demonstrated in scientific literature to enhance neuroplasticity in the adult brain.

The analysis

The retrieved literature contains multiple experimental and review papers showing that specific pharmacological agents and drugs (such as ketamine, tamoxifen, and erythropoietin) modulate neurobiological pathways to increase neuroplasticity, support neurogenesis, and promote recovery in adult brains. Therefore, the claim is supported.
