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

Studies of the dorsal cochlear nucleus (DCN) have focused on spectral processing because of the complex spectral receptive fields of the DCN. However, temporal fluctuations in natural signals convey important information, including information about moving sound sources or movements of the external ear in animals like cats. Here, we investigate the temporal filtering properties of DCN principal neurons through the use of temporal weighting functions that allow flexible analysis of nonlinearities and time variation in temporal response properties. First-order temporal receptive fields derived from the neurons are sufficient to characterize their response properties to low-contrast (3-dB standard deviation) stimuli. Larger contrasts require the second-order terms. Allowing temporal variation of the parameters of the first-order model or adding a component representing refractoriness improves predictions by the model by relatively small amounts. The importance of second-order components of the model is shown through simulations of nonlinear envelope synchronization behavior across sound level. The temporal model can be combined with a spectral model to predict tuning to the speed and direction of moving sounds.
