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

Magnetic stimulation is less sensitive to the inflammatory reactions that plague conventional electrode-based cortical implants and therefore may be useful as a next-generation (implanted) cortical prosthetic. The fields arising from micro-coils are quite small however and thus, their ability to modulate cortical activity must first be established. Here, we show that layer V pyramidal neurons (PNs) can be strongly activated by micro-coil stimulation and further, the asymmetric fields arising from such coils do not simultaneously activate horizontally-oriented axon fibers, thus confining activation to a focal region around the coil. The spatially-narrow fields from micro-coils allowed the sensitivity of different regions within a single PN to be compared: while the proximal axon was most sensitive in naïve cells, repetitive stimulation over the apical dendrite led to a change in state of the neuron that reduced thresholds there to below those of the axon. Thus, our results raise the possibility that regardless of the mode of stimulation, penetration depths that target specific portions of the apical dendrite may actually be more effective than those that target Layer 6. Interestingly, the state change had similar properties to state changes described previously at the systems level, suggesting a possible neuronal mechanism underlying such responses.
