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

The auditory system of the plainfin midshipman fish, Porichthys notatus, is an important sensory receiver system used to encode intraspecific social communication signals in adults, but the response properties and function of this receiver system in pre-adult stages are less known. In this study we examined the response properties of auditory-evoked potentials from the midshipman saccule, the main organ of hearing in this species, to determine whether the frequency response and auditory threshold of saccular hair cells to behaviorally relevant single tone stimuli change during ontogeny. Saccular potentials were recorded from three relative sizes of midshipman fish: small juveniles [1.9-3.1 cm standard length (SL), large juveniles (6.8-8.0 cm SL) and non-reproductive adults (9.0-22.6 cm SL)]. The auditory evoked potentials were recorded from the rostral, middle and caudal regions of the saccule while single tone stimuli (75-1,025 Hz) were presented via an underwater speaker. We show that the frequency response and auditory threshold of the midshipman saccule is established early in development and retained throughout ontogeny. We also show that saccular sensitivity to frequencies greater than 385 Hz increases with age/size and that the midshipman saccule of small and large juveniles, like that of non-reproductive adults, is best suited to detect low frequency sounds (<105 Hz) in their natural acoustic environment.
