Modulation of saccade trajectories during sequential saccades.
Article in Journal of neurophysiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The planning and execution of sequential saccades can overlap in time, and abrupt changes in neural activity in the oculomotor system can alter the normal trajectory of saccades. In this study, we analyzed saccade trajectories to assess the combined programming of sequential saccades. In two separate psychophysical experiments, subjects were instructed to make a sequence of two saccades. The results showed modulation of saccade curvature by the direction and amplitude of both the preceding and following saccade: saccade curvature is modulated in the direction of preceding saccades and away from the direction of following saccades. Moreover, larger preceding and following saccades have stronger effects on curvature. These results support the idea that sequential saccades are programmed concurrently. Finally, the amount of saccade curvature is correlated with the deviation of saccade start and end points, and the time of maximum deviation of saccade trajectories is highly consistent in both experiments. Based on this, we propose a novel benefit for the modulation of saccade trajectories by the oculomotor system: minimizing the saccadic error in sequential saccades.
