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

backgroundCoherent perception of the visual world requires orderly processing of spatially and temporally distributed visual information across the visual field. The organization of this visual information is impaired in schizophrenia. We previously found that visual temporal integration in patients is prolonged, using flashes presented to the central fovea. In this study, we investigated this temporal interaction in both the fovea and fairly far out in the peripheral visual field.

methodsWe used a 'three-flash' illusion paradigm in which two spatially-coincident light pulses (of 1 ms each) are perceived by healthy individuals as one, two or three flashes depending on the time interval between the pulses. In each trial, two light pulses were presented in the fovea or 34° out in the right visual field. The inter-stimulus pulse interval (ISI) ranged from 30 to 310 ms. The task for patients (n=28) and controls (n=26) was to indicate the number of flashes (one, two or three) perceived after each two-pulse presentation.

resultsFor the controls, the peak of the three-flash illusion was shifted to longer ISIs (150 ms) in the periphery compared to the fovea (110 ms). For the patients, the three-flash illusion was greater and occurred at longer ISIs (270 ms in the periphery and 190 ms at the fovea).

conclusionCompared to the central visual field, the range of temporal interactions in the periphery is prolonged to a greater extent in schizophrenia. This exacerbated temporal expansion in peripheral vision suggests a coarse temporal resolution for visual and cognitive organization in this mental disorder.
