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

This is a note challenging the claim by Kudina and Andreeva's recent publication in Experimental Brain Research. In that publication, Kudina and Andreeva (Exp Brain Res 239:719-730, 2021) put forward a new idea about discovering two spiking modes in human motoneurons. We suggest that what they have shown in their publication maybe is the motor unit firing indicating the end of a net synaptic potential. We reason this challenge from our previous publication in the same journal. In that publication, we have shown that the "second spiking mode" after the H-reflex was a return to the regular prestimulus discharge rate.
