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
Complex natural and environmental sounds, such as speech and music, convey information along both spectral and temporal dimensions. The cortical representation of such stimuli rapidly adapts when animals become actively engaged in discriminating them. In this study, we examine the nature of these changes using simplified spectrotemporal versions (upward vs downward shifting tone sequences) with domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius). Cortical processing rapidly adapted to enhance the contrast between the two discriminated stimulus categories, by changing spectrotemporal receptive field properties to encode both the spectral and temporal structure of the tone sequences. Furthermore, the valence of the changes was closely linked to the task reward structure: stimuli associated with negative reward became enhanced relative to those associated with positive reward. These task- and-stimulus-related spectrotemporal receptive field changes occurred only in trained animals during, and immediately following, behavior. This plasticity was independently confirmed by parallel changes in a directionality function measured from the responses to the transition of tone sequences during task performance. The results demonstrate that induced patterns of rapid plasticity reflect closely the spectrotemporal structure of the task stimuli, thus extending the functional relevance of rapid task-related plasticity to the perception and learning of natural sounds such speech and animal vocalizations.
