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

Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) adjusts synaptic strengths according to the precise timing of pre- and postsynaptic spike pairs. Theoretical and computational studies have revealed that STDP may contribute to the emergence of a variety of structural and dynamical states in plastic neuronal populations. In this manuscript, we show that by incorporating dendritic and axonal propagation delays in recurrent networks of oscillatory neurons, the asymptotic connectivity displays multistability, where different structures emerge depending on the initial distribution of the synaptic strengths. In particular, we show that the standard deviation of the initial distribution of synaptic weights, besides its mean, determines the main properties of the emergent structural connectivity such as the mean final synaptic weight, the number of two-neuron loops and the symmetry of the final structure. We also show that the firing rates of the neurons affect the evolution of the network, and a more symmetric configuration of the synapses emerges at higher firing rates. We justify the network results based on a two-neuron framework and show how the results translate to large recurrent networks.
