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

Speech evokes robust activity in auditory cortex, which contains information over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. It remains unclear which components of these neural representations are causally involved in the perception and processing of speech sounds. Here we compared the relative importance of early and late speech-evoked activity for consonant discrimination. We trained mice to discriminate the initial consonants in spoken words, and then tested the effect of optogenetically suppressing different temporal windows of speech-evoked activity in auditory cortex. We found that both early and late suppression disrupted performance equivalently. These results suggest that mice are impaired at recognizing either type of disrupted representation because it differs from those learned in training.
