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

Most studies of memory and perceptual learning in humans have employed unisensory settings to simplify the study paradigm. However, in daily life we are often surrounded by complex and cluttered scenes made up of many objects and sources of sensory stimulation. Our experiences are, therefore, highly multisensory both when passively observing the world and when acting and navigating. We argue that human learning and memory systems are evolved to operate under these multisensory and dynamic conditions. The nervous system exploits the rich array of sensory inputs in this process, is sensitive to the relationship between the sensory inputs, and continuously updates sensory representations, and encodes memory traces based on the relationship between the senses. We review some recent findings that demonstrate a range of human learning and memory phenomena in which the interactions between visual and auditory modalities play an important role, and suggest possible neural mechanisms that can underlie some surprising recent findings. We outline open questions as well as directions of future research to unravel human perceptual learning and memory.
