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

Undergraduate neuroscience education has grown substantially in the US as well as participation in outreach and research activities by undergraduates. In line with these observations, undergraduates may also be seeking membership in the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) as well as attending the SfN annual meeting. Data in the present report show that undergraduate membership in SfN has increased between 2013 and 2019 as well as annual undergraduate SfN meeting attendance and abstract submissions for research presentations. Increases were observed for both US and international undergraduates. These data are discussed in the context of motivations of undergraduates to pursue future academic training and/or careers in neuroscience. These data are important to faculty and administrators at institutions that currently have or seek to establish new undergraduate neuroscience programs given membership in a professional society and attendance at a major conference can positively impact academic and professional development.
