Neural fluctuation cues for simultaneous notched-noise masking and profile-analysis tasks: Insights from model midbrain responses.
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Results of simultaneous notched-noise masking are commonly interpreted as reflecting the bandwidth of underlying auditory filters. This interpretation assumes that listeners detect a tone added to notched-noise based on an increase in energy at the output of an auditory filter. Previous work challenged this assumption by showing that randomly and independently varying (roving) the levels of each stimulus interval does not substantially worsen listener thresholds [Lentz, Richards, and Matiasek (1999). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 106, 2779-2792]. Lentz et al. further challenged this assumption by showing that filter bandwidths based on notched-noise results were different from those based on a profile-analysis task [Green (1983). Am. Psychol. 38, 133-142; (1988). (Oxford University Press, New York)], although these estimates were later reconciled by emphasizing spectral peaks of the profile-analysis stimulus [Lentz (2006). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 120, 945-956]. Here, a single physiological model is shown to account for performance in fixed- and roving-level notched-noise tasks and the Lentz et al. profile-analysis task. This model depends on peripheral neural fluctuation cues that are transformed into the average rates of model inferior colliculus neurons. Neural fluctuations are influenced by peripheral filters, synaptic adaptation, cochlear amplification, and saturation of inner hair cells, an element not included in previous theories of envelope-based cues for these tasks. Results suggest reevaluation of the interpretation of performance in these paradigms.
