To see or not to see; the ability of the magno- and parvocellular response to manifest itself in the VEP determines its appearance to a pattern reversing and pattern onset stimulus.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2016. 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
introductionThe relationship between stimulus property, brain activity, and the VEP is still a matter of uncertainty.
methodWe recorded the VEP of 43 volunteers when viewing a series of dartboard images presented as both a pattern reversing and pattern onset/offset stimulus. Across the dartboard images, the total stimulus area undergoing a luminance contrast change was varied in a graded manner.
resultsWe confirmed the presence of two independent neural processing stages. The amplitude of VEP components across our pattern reversing stimuli signaled a phasic neural response based on a temporal luminance contrast selective mechanism. The amplitude of VEP components across the pattern onset stimuli signaled both a phasic and a tonic neural response based on a temporal- and spatial luminance contrast selective mechanism respectively. Oscillation frequencies in the VEP suggested modulation of the phasic neural response by feedback from areas of the dorsal stream, while feedback from areas of the ventral stream modulated the tonic neural response. Each processing stage generated a sink and source phase in the VEP. Source localization indicated that during the sink phase electric current density was highest in V1, while during the source phase electric current density was highest in extra-striate cortex. Our model successfully predicted the appearance of the VEP to our images whether presented as a pattern reversing or a pattern onset/offset stimulus.
conclusionsFocussing on the effects of a phasic and tonic response rather than contrast response function on the VEP, enabled us to develop a theory linking stimulus property, neural activity and the VEP.
