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

Dense local, recurrent connections are a major feature of cortical circuits, yet how they affect neurons' responses has been unclear, with some studies reporting weak recurrent effects, some reporting amplification, and others indicating local suppression. Here, we show that optogenetic input to mouse V1 excitatory neurons generates salt-and-pepper patterns of both excitation and suppression. Responses in individual neurons are not strongly predicted by that neuron's direct input. A balanced-state network model reconciles a set of diverse observations: the observed dynamics, suppressed responses, decoupling of input and output, and long tail of excited responses. The model shows recurrent excitatory-excitatory connections are strong and also variable across neurons. Together, these results demonstrate that excitatory recurrent connections can have major effects on cortical computations by shaping and changing neurons' responses to input.
