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 investigated the ability of rats to recall sequences of nose-poke holes with a modified serial reaction time task. In each trial, a sequence was randomly selected and the position of the first illuminated hole, which functioned as a cue stimulus, informed the rats whether the following sequence was a predictable one or not, based on prior training. The rats responded predictively only when the cues of the predictable sequences were presented. They did not show predictive responses when the cues of unpredictable sequences were presented, even though the unpredictable sequences partially had the same order of holes as the predictable sequences. These results indicate that the rats can recall sequences on the basis of presentation of the first cue stimulus informing predictable or unpredictable sequences. Recording neuronal activity while rats perform this behavioral task would be useful to elucidate neuronal mechanisms that mediate sequence recall.
