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

Many natural systems including the brain comprise coupled elements that are stimulated non-uniformly. In this paper we show that heterogeneously driven networks of excitatory-inhibitory units exhibit a diverse range of collective phenomena, including the appearance of spontaneous oscillations upon coupling quiescent elements. On varying the coupling strength a previously unreported transition is seen wherein the symmetries of the synchronization patterns in the stimulated and unstimulated groups undergo mutual exchange. The system also exhibits coexisting chaotic and non-chaotic attractors - a result that may be of interest in connection to earlier reports of varying degrees of chaoticity in the brain.
