Cochlear resident macrophage mediates development of ribbon synapses
Article in Frontiers in molecular neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Cochlear ribbon synapses formed between spiral ganglion neurons and inner hair cells in postnatal mice must undergo significant morphological and functional development to reach auditory maturation. However, the mechanisms underlying cochlear ribbon synapse remodeling remain unclear. This study found that cochlear resident macrophages are essential for cochlear ribbon synapse development and maturation in mice
