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

Integrated CMOS neural amplifiers are key elements of modern large-scale neuroelectronic interfaces. The neural amplifiers are routinely AC-coupled to electrodes to remove the DC voltage. The large resistances required for the AC coupling circuit are usually realized using MOSFETs that are nonlinear. Specifically, designs with tunable cutoff frequency of the input high‑pass filter may suffer from excessive nonlinearity, since the gate-source voltages of the transistors forming the pseudoresistors vary following the signal being amplified. Consequently, the nonlinear distortion in such circuits may be high for signal frequencies close to the cutoff frequency of the input filter. Here we propose a simple modification of the architecture of a tunable AC-coupled amplifier, in which the bias voltages
