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

Measurements of population activity in alert animals have demonstrated that the intrinsic response state of the cortex has profound effects on the neuronal representation of sensory inputs, raising the possibility that cortical state could influence the behavioral performance in perceptual learning (PL). PL is a process by which sensory experience leads to gradual and semi-permanent improvements in perceptual judgment, and it is generally agreed that these improvements are modulated by sensory cortical areas. Although the precise neural mechanisms underlying the improved perceptual judgment remain unclear, cortical state has been shown to impact the behavioral outcome of PL. We discuss several ways in which cortical state might influence PL based on the recent evidence for state-dependent modulation of sensory encoding. Conversely, training in a certain perceptual task feeds back to modulate cortical state, suggesting a bi-directional relationship between cortical state and behavioral outcomes of PL. We highlight the recent studies that shed light on the mechanism of the interplay between cortical state and PL.
