Functional organization of the local circuit in the inferior colliculus.
Article in Anatomical science international, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 24 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
The inferior colliculus (IC) is the first integration center of the auditory system. After the transformation of sound to neural signals in the cochlea, the signals are analyzed by brainstem auditory nuclei that, in turn, transmit this information to the IC. However, the neural circuitry that underlies this integration is unclear. This review consists of two parts: one is about the cell type which is likely to integrate sound information, and the other is about a technique which is useful for studying local circuitry. Large GABAergic (LG) neurons receive dense excitatory axosomatic terminals that originate from the lower brainstem auditory nuclei as well as local IC neurons. Dozens of axons coming from both local and lower brainstem neurons converge on a single LG soma. Excitatory neurons in IC can innervate many nearby LG somata in the same fibrodendritic lamina. The combination of local and ascending inputs is well suited for auditory integration. LG neurons are one of the main sources of inhibition in the medial geniculate body (MGB). LG neurons and the tectothalamic inhibitory system are present in a wide variety of mammalian species. This suggests that the circuitry of excitatory and inhibitory tectothalamic projections may have evolved earlier than GABAergic interneurons in the MGB, which are found in fewer species. Cellular-level functional imaging provides both morphological and functional information about local circuitry. In the last part of this review, we describe an in vivo calcium imaging study that sheds light on the functional organization of the IC.
