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 inferior temporal (IT) cortical neurons reduce their response when a stimulus is repeated. Proposed mechanisms underlying this repetition suppression range from "fatigue" to top-down expectations of repetition. Here we examine a prediction from simple fatigue-based models of adaptation: prolonging adapter duration will increase the adapter response, leading to more repetition suppression. To test this, we varied adapter duration from 300 to 3000 ms, keeping the test stimulus duration constant. We observed no effect of adapter duration on repetition suppression when averaging responses across the test presentation. This was not because of a ceiling effect, since repeated presentations of a short adapter increased repetition suppression. Examination of test stimulus responses showed increased repetition suppression with longer adapter durations during the initial response phase, which reversed at a later phase. Across neurons, we found that the degree of repetition suppression covaried with the ratio of the response during the initial transient and later sustained phase of the response during the long adapter presentation, suggesting overlapping mechanisms that underlie adaptation during the adapter and the delayed test. We propose a fatigue-based account in which fatigue increases non-linearly with adapter duration to explain these unexpected findings.
