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

In the visual system of the blowfly Calliphora vicina, neurons of the vertical system (VS cells) integrate wide-field motion information from a retinotopic array of local motion detectors. In vivo calcium imaging reveals two distinct and separate receptive fields in these cells: a narrow dendritic receptive field corresponding to feedforward input from the local motion detectors and a broad axon terminal receptive field that additionally incorporates input from neighboring cells mediated by lateral axo-axonal gap junctions. We show that the axon terminal responses are linear interpolations of the dendritic responses, resulting in a robust population coding of optic flow parameters as predicted by previous modeling studies. Compartmental modeling shows that spatially separating the axonal gap junctions from the conductive load of the dendritic synapses increases the coupling strength of the gap junctions, making this interpolation possible.
