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

Spike sorting is the process of retrieving the spike times of individual neurons that are present in an extracellular neural recording. Over the last decades, many spike sorting algorithms have been published. In an effort to guide a user towards a specific spike sorting algorithm, given a specific recording setting (i.e., brain region and recording device), we provide an open-source graphical tool for the generation of hybrid ground-truth data in Python. Hybrid ground-truth data is a data-driven modelling paradigm in which spikes from a single unit are moved to a different location on the recording probe, thereby generating a virtual unit of which the spike times are known. The tool enables a user to efficiently generate hybrid ground-truth datasets and make informed decisions between spike sorting algorithms, fine-tune the algorithm parameters towards the used recording setting, or get a deeper understanding of those algorithms.
