Olfactory coding in a simple system: adaptation in Drosophila larvae.
Article in Proceedings. Biological sciences, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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
Drosophila melanogaster larvae were pre-stimulated with high concentrations of six homologous alcohols (C4-C9) and then tested for adaptation and cross-adaptation using these same alcohols, four aliphatic n-acetates and three acids. Pre-stimulation with hexanol effectively reduced to zero (abolished) test responses to all six alcohols, whereas test responses to hexanol were only affected by pre-stimulation with hexanol. This substance appears to play a fundamental role in the organization of the larval olfactory system. Test responses to butanol and pentanol, and the effect of pre-stimulation with butanol and pentanol, were not significantly different, indicating that they are sensory equivalents. Heptanol, octanol and nonanol induce a complex set of responses among one another. Cross-adaptation between functional groups was observed, in particular following pre-stimulation with hexanol, but there was also evidence that functional groups are coded separately. A model of olfactory processing in the fruitfly maggot is presented that explains the data and provides predictions for future anatomical, genetic and electrophysiological studies.
