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

Many studies of the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) have focused on the representation of acoustic stimuli in terms of average firing rate. However, recent studies have emphasized the role of spike timing in information encoding. We sought to ascertain whether DCN pyramidal cells might employ similar strategies and to what extent intrinsic excitability regulates spike timing. Gaussian distributed low-pass noise current was injected into pyramidal cells in a brain slice preparation. The shuffled autocorrelation-based analysis was used to compute a correlation index of spike times across trials. The noise causes the cells to fire with temporal precision (SD congruent with 1-2 ms) and high reproducibility. Increasing the coefficient of variation of the noise improved the reproducibility of the spike trains, whereas increasing the firing rate of the neuron decreased the neurons' ability to respond with predictable patterns of spikes. Simulated inhibitory postsynaptic potentials superimposed on the noise stimulus enhanced spike timing for >300 ms, although the enhancement was greatest during the first 100 ms. We also found that populations of pyramidal neurons respond to the same noise stimuli with correlated spike trains, suggesting that ensembles of neurons in the DCN receiving shared input can fire with similar timing. These results support the hypothesis that spike timing can be an important aspect of information coding in the DCN.
