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

In a reverse-phi stimulus, the contrast luminance of moving dots is reversed each displacement step. Under those conditions, the direction of the moving dots is perceived in the direction opposite of the displacement direction of the dots. In this study, we investigate if mice respond oppositely to phi and reverse-phi stimuli. Mice ran head-fixed on a Styrofoam ball floating on pressurized air at the center of a large dome. We projected random dot patterns that were displaced rightward or leftward, using either a phi or a reverse-phi stimulus. For phi stimuli, changes in direction caused the mice to reflexively compensate and adjust their running direction in the direction of the displaced pattern. We show that for reverse-phi stimuli mice compensate in the direction opposite to the displacement direction of the dots, in accordance with the perceived direction of displacement in humans for reverse-phi stimuli.
