Electrical Properties of Adult Mammalian Motoneurons.
Article in Advances in neurobiology, 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
Motoneurons are the 'final common path' between the central nervous system (that intends, selects, commands, and organises movement) and muscles (that produce the behaviour). Motoneurons are not passive relays, but rather integrate synaptic activity to appropriately tune output (spike trains) and therefore the production of muscle force. In this chapter, we focus on studies of mammalian motoneurons, describing their heterogeneity whilst providing a brief historical account of motoneuron recording techniques. Next, we describe adult motoneurons in terms of their passive, transition, and active (repetitive firing) properties. We then discuss modulation of these properties by somatic (C-boutons) and dendritic (persistent inward currents) mechanisms. Finally, we briefly describe select studies of human motor unit physiology and relate them to findings from animal preparations discussed earlier in the chapter. This interphyletic approach to the study of motoneuron physiology is crucial to progress understanding of how these diverse neurons translate intention into behaviour.
