1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Animals live in dynamic worlds where they use sensorimotor circuits to rapidly process information and drive behaviours. For example, dragonflies are aerial predators that react to movements of prey within tens of milliseconds. These pursuits are likely controlled by identified neurons in the dragonfly, which have well-characterized physiological responses to moving targets. Predominantly, neural activity in these circuits is interpreted in context of a rate code, where information is conveyed by changes in the number of spikes over a time period. However, such a description of neuronal activity is difficult to achieve in real-world, real-time scenarios. Here, we contrast a neuroscientists'
