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

In this paper, analytical and numerical studies of the influence of the long-range interaction parameter on the excitability threshold in a ring of FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) system are investigated. The long-range interaction is introduced to the network to model regulation of the Gap junctions or hemichannels activity at the connexins level, which provides links between pre-synaptic and post-synaptic neurons. Results show that the long-range coupling enhances the range of the threshold parameter. We also investigate the long-range effects on the network dynamics, which induces enlargement of the oscillatory zone before the excitable regime. When considering bidirectional coupling, the long-range interaction induces traveling patterns such as traveling waves, while when considering unidirectional coupling, the long-range interaction induces multi-chimera states. We also studied the difference between the dynamics of coupled oscillators and coupled excitable neurons. We found that, for the coupled system, the oscillation period decreases with the increasing of the coupling parameter. For the same values of the coupling parameter, the oscillation period of the Oscillatory dynamics is greater than the oscillation period of the excitable dynamics. The analytical approximation shows good agreement with the numerical results.
