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

Listeners were presented with two simultaneous tones of different frequencies (more than one octave apart) and asked to identify the tone that was amplitude-modulated while a tonal precursor was presented to cue the frequency of the lower frequency tone. Performance thresholds were estimated based on the duration of the tone-pair. In Exp. I the duration of the precursor varied from 100 to 400 ms and the inter-stimulus interval (ISI) between the precursor and the tone-pair varied from 0 to 1 s. The presence of the precursor facilitated segregation. As the ISI increased, the facilitation effect of the precursor increased for the precursor durations of 100 and 200 ms, but not for the 400-ms precursor duration. When the precursor was presented to the contralateral ear relative to the tone-pair in Exp. II, no significant change to the precursor effect was observed. These observations contradict the predictions of the model based solely on bottom-up processing, suggesting the likely involvement of top-down processes.
