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

The entorhinal cortex, a brain area critical for memory, contains neurons that fire when a rodent is in a certain location (eg, grid cells), or when a monkey looks at certain locations. In rodents, these spatial representations align to visual objects in the environment by firing when the animal is in a preferred location defined by relative position of visual environmental features. Recently, our laboratory found that simultaneously recorded entorhinal neurons in monkeys can exhibit different spatial reference frames for gaze position, including a reference frame of visual environmental features. We also discovered that most of the neurons represent gaze position. These results suggest that gaze information in multiple spatial reference frames is a potent signal used in the primate memory system. Here, I describe how these findings support three underappreciated views of the hippocampal memory system.
