Neuroepigenetics of arousal: Gamma oscillations in the pedunculopontine nucleus.
Review in Journal of neuroscience research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Four major discoveries on the function of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) have significantly advanced our understanding of the role of arousal in neurodegenerative disorders. The first was the finding that stimulation of the PPN-induced controlled locomotion on a treadmill in decerebrate animals, the second was the revelation of electrical coupling in the PPN and other arousal and sleep-wake control regions, the third was the determination of intrinsic gamma band oscillations in PPN neurons, and the last was the discovery of gene transcription resulting from the manifestation of gamma activity in the PPN. These discoveries have led to novel therapies such as PPN deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease (PD), identified the mechanism of action of the stimulant modafinil, determined the presence of separate mechanisms underlying gamma activity during waking versus REM sleep, and revealed the presence of gene transcription during the manifestation of gamma band oscillations. These discoveries set the stage for additional major advances in the treatment of a number of disorders.
