Gamma Synchronization between V1 and V4 Improves Behavioral Performance.
Article in Neuron, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 53 papers.
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.
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
Behavior is often driven by visual stimuli, relying on feedforward communication from lower to higher visual areas. Effective communication depends on enhanced interareal coherence, but it remains unclear whether this coherence occurs at an optimal phase relation that actually improves stimulus transmission to behavioral report. We recorded local field potentials from V1 and V4 of macaques performing an attention task during which they reported changes in the attended stimulus. V1-V4 gamma synchronization immediately preceding the stimulus change partly predicted subsequent reaction times (RTs). RTs slowed systematically as trial-by-trial interareal gamma phase relations deviated from the phase relation at which V1 and V4 synchronized on average. V1-V4 gamma phase relations accounted for RT differences of 13-31 ms. Effects were specific to the attended stimulus and not explained by local power or phase. Thus, interareal gamma synchronization occurs at the optimal phase relation for transmission of sensory inputs to motor responses.
