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

Neural computations underlying cognition and behavior rely on the coordination of neural activity across multiple brain areas. Understanding how brain areas interact to process information or generate behavior is thus a central question in neuroscience. Here we provide an overview of statistical approaches for characterizing statistical dependencies in multi-region spike train recordings. We focus on two classes of models in particular: regression-based models and shared latent variable models. Regression-based models describe interactions in terms of a directed transformation of information from one region to another. Shared latent variable models, on the other hand, seek to describe interactions in terms of sources that capture common fluctuations in spiking activity across regions. We discuss the advantages and limitations of each of these approaches and future directions for the field. We intend this review to be an introduction to the statistical methods in multi-region models for computational neuroscientists and experimentalists alike.
