Communication call-evoked gamma-band activity in the auditory cortex of awake bats is modified by complex acoustic features.
Article in Brain research, 2008. 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
Mustached bats emit an acoustically rich variety of calls for social communication. In the posterior primary auditory cortex, activity of neural ensembles measured as local field potentials (LFPs) can uniquely encode each call type. Here we report that LFPs recorded in response to calls contain oscillatory activity in the gamma-band frequency range (>20 Hz). The power spectrum of these high-frequency oscillations shows either two peaks of energy (at 40 Hz and 100 Hz), or just one peak at 40 Hz. The relative power of gamma-band activity in the power spectrum of a call-evoked LFP correlates significantly with the 'harmonic complexity' of a call. Gamma-band activity is attenuated with reversal of frequency-modulated calls. Amplitude modulation, even when asymmetric across call reversals, has no significant effect on gamma-band activity. These results provide the first experimental evidence that complex features within different groups of species-specific calls modify the power spectrum of evoked gamma-band activity.
