Sensitive Periods for Recovery from Early Brain Injury.
Review in Current topics in behavioral neurosciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 developing brain is remarkably plastic as it changes in response to a wide range of experiences including sensory and motor experience, psychoactive drugs, peer relationships, parent-infant interactions, gonadal hormones, intestinal flora, diet, and injury. There are sensitive periods for many of these experiences, including cerebral injury. Comparisons across mammalian species (humans, monkeys, cats, rats, mice) show a sensitive period for good outcomes from cerebral injury around the time of intense synaptogenesis. This period is postnatal in humans, cats, and rats, but prenatal in monkeys, reflecting the differences in neuronal development at birth across species. In addition, there appears to be a sensitive period prenatally during the time of maximum cortical neurogenesis and possibly during adolescence as well, although these periods are not as well studied as the period related to synaptogenesis and to date only examined in rats. Here we review the evidence for sensitive periods related to brain injury across species and propose mechanisms that may underlie the plasticity during these periods.
