The head fixation based on skull cap: An improved protocol used in single unit recording in the vestibular system.
Article in MethodsX, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Single unit recording has an important application in neuroscience, especially in the vestibular system such as visual stabilization, posture maintenance, spatial orientation and cognition. However, single unit recording conducted in living animals is a demanding technique and non-ideal mechanical stability between the recording location of nerve tissues and the tip of microelectrode always results in failure to obtain successful recordings in the vestibular system. In order to improve the mechanical stability during single unit recording, we constructed a novel head fixation method based on skull cap. This article describes in detail how to construct this novel head fixation. Following the step-by-step procedure mentioned in this article will provide a high-quality mechanical stability for single unit recording in the vestibular system, allowing us to successfully record the nonlinear neural dynamic response over a big magnitude motion stimulation. This improvement of head fixation contributes to the in-depth understanding of the vestibular system.
