Representation of Auditory Task Components and of Their Relationships in Primate Auditory Cortex.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The current study aimed to resolve some of the inconsistencies in the literature on which mental processes affect auditory cortical activity. To this end, we studied auditory cortical firing in four monkeys with different experience while they were involved in six conditions with different arrangements of the task components sound, motor action, and water reward. Firing rates changed most strongly when a sound-only condition was compared to a condition in which sound was paired with water. Additional smaller changes occurred in more complex conditions in which the monkeys received water for motor actions before or after sounds. Our findings suggest that auditory cortex is most strongly modulated by the subjects' level of arousal, thus by a psychological concept related to motor activity triggered by reinforcers and to readiness for operant behavior. Our findings also suggest that auditory cortex is involved in associative and emotional functions, but not in agency and cognitive effort.
