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

We present a method for the reconstruction of three stimulus-evoked time-varying synaptic input conductances from voltage recordings. Our approach is based on exploiting the stochastic nature of synaptic conductances and membrane voltage. Starting with the assumption that the variances of the conductances are known, we use a stochastic differential equation to model dynamics of membrane potential and derive equations for first and second moments that can be solved to find conductances. We successfully apply the new reconstruction method to simulated data. We also explore the robustness of the method as the assumptions of the underlying model are relaxed. We vary the noise levels, the reversal potentials, the number of stimulus repetitions, and the accuracy of conductance variance estimation to quantify the robustness of reconstruction. These studies pave the way for the application of the method to experimental data.
