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

Realistic computational models of neuronal activity typically involve many variables and parameters, most of which remain unknown or poorly constrained. Moreover, experimental observations of the neuronal system are typically limited to the times of action potentials, or spikes. One important component of developing a computational model is the optimal incorporation of these sparse experimental data. Here, we use point process statistical theory to develop a procedure for estimating parameters and hidden variables in neuronal computational models given only the observed spike times. We discuss the implementation of a sequential Monte Carlo method for this procedure and apply it to three simulated examples of neuronal spiking activity. We also address the issues of model identification and misspecification, and show that accurate estimates of model parameters and hidden variables are possible given only spike time data.
