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

Electrical activity has numerous roles in early neuronal development. Calcium transients generated at low frequencies regulate neural induction and neuronal proliferation, migration and differentiation. Recent work demonstrates that these signals participate in specification of the transmitters expressed in different classes of neurons. Matching of postsynaptic receptor expression with the novel expression of transmitters ensues. These findings have intriguing implications for development, mature function and evolution of the nervous system.
