Keeping Excitation-Inhibition Ratio in Balance.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Unrelated genetic mutations can lead to convergent manifestations of neurological disorders with similar behavioral phenotypes. Experimental data frequently show a lack of dramatic changes in neuroanatomy, indicating that the key cause of symptoms might arise from impairment in the communication between neurons. A transient imbalance between excitatory (glutamatergic) and inhibitory (GABAergic) synaptic transmission (the E/I balance) during early development is generally considered to underlie the development of several neurological disorders in adults. However, the E/I ratio is a multidimensional variable. Synaptic contacts are highly dynamic and the actual strength of synaptic projections is determined from the balance between synaptogenesis and synaptic elimination. During development, relatively slow postsynaptic receptors are replaced by fast ones that allow for fast stimulus-locked excitation/inhibition. Using the binomial model of synaptic transmission allows for the reassessing of experimental data from different mouse models, showing that a transient E/I shift is frequently counterbalanced by additional pre- and/or postsynaptic changes. Such changes-for instance, the slowing down of postsynaptic currents by means of immature postsynaptic receptors-stabilize the average synaptic strength, but impair the timing of information flow. Compensatory processes and/or astrocytic signaling may represent possible targets for medical treatments of different disorders directed to rescue the proper information processing.
