1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Flies, like humans, experience a well-known consequence of adaptation to visual motion, the waterfall illusion. Direction-selective neurons in the fly lobula plate permit a detailed analysis of the mechanisms responsible for motion adaptation and their function. Most of these neurons are spatially non-opponent, they sum responses to motion in the preferred direction across their entire receptive field, and adaptation depresses responses by subtraction and by reducing contrast gain. When we adapted a small area of the receptive field to motion in its anti-preferred direction, we discovered that directional gain at unadapted regions was enhanced. This novel phenomenon shows that neuronal responses to the direction of stimulation in one area of the receptive field are dynamically adjusted to the history of stimulation both within and outside that area.
