Isn't functional neuroimaging all about Ca2+ signaling in astrocytes?
Article in Journal of neurophysiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Extensive research over the past decades about the multifaceted roles of brain astrocytes led to the suggestion that the signals observed with functional neuroimaging might primarily reflect astrocytic rather than neuronal activity. The basis for this paradigm-shifting concept was the evidence for an involvement of astrocytes in the control of local cerebral blood flow through intracellular Ca(2+) signaling. In this Neuro Forum, I discuss new important experimental findings obtained by Jego et al. (Jego P, Pacheco-Torres J, Araque A, Canals S. J Cereb Blood Flow Metab 34: 1599-1603, 2014) as well as other closely related studies published recently, prompting a dismissal of substantial astrocytic contribution in functional neuroimaging.
