A hypothesis concerning distinct schemes of olfactory activation evoked by perceived versus nonperceived input.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
SignificanceThe authors propose that odors are consciously perceived or not, depending on whether the olfactory cortex succeeds in activating the endopiriform nucleus-a structure that, in turn, is capable of activating multiple downstream brain areas. The authors further propose that the cellular mechanisms of endopiriform nucleus activation are an attenuated form of cellular events that occur during epileptic seizure initiation. If correct, the authors' hypothesis could help explain the mechanisms of action of certain general anesthetics.
