Oscillatory entrainment of primary somatosensory cortex encodes visual control of tactile processing.
Article in The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 47 papers.
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.
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
Optimal behavior relies on the successful integration of complementary information from multiple senses. The neural mechanisms underlying multisensory interactions are still poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate the critical role of neural network oscillations and direct connectivity between primary sensory cortices in visual-somatosensory interactions. Extracellular recordings from all layers of the barrel field in Brown Norway rats in vivo showed that bimodal stimulation (simultaneous light flash and whisker deflection) augmented the somatosensory-evoked response and changed the power of induced network oscillations by resetting their phase. Anatomical tracing revealed sparse direct connectivity between primary visual (V1) and somatosensory (S1) cortices. Pharmacological silencing of V1 diminished but did not abolish cross-modal effects on S1 oscillatory activity, while leaving the early enhancement of the evoked response unaffected. Thus, visual stimuli seem to impact tactile processing by modulating network oscillations in S1 via corticocortical projections and subcortical feedforward interactions.
