Neural binaural sensitivity at high sound speeds: Single cell responses in cat midbrain to fast-changing interaural time differences of broadband sounds.
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Relative motion between the body and the outside world is a rich source of information. Neural selectivity to motion is well-established in several sensory systems, but is controversial in hearing. This study examines neural sensitivity to changes in the instantaneous interaural time difference of sounds at the two ears. Midbrain neurons track such changes up to extremely high speeds, show only a coarse dependence of firing rate on speed, and lack directional selectivity. These results argue against the presence of selectivity to auditory motion at the level of the midbrain, but reveal an acuity which enables coding of fast-fluctuating binaural cues in realistic sound environments.
