The ultra-thin, minimally invasive surface electrode array NeuroWeb for probing neural activity.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 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
Electrophysiological recording technologies can provide valuable insights into the functioning of the central and peripheral nervous systems. Surface electrode arrays made of soft materials or implantable multi-electrode arrays with high electrode density have been widely utilized as neural probes. However, neither of these probe types can simultaneously achieve minimal invasiveness and robust neural signal detection. Here, we present an ultra-thin, minimally invasive neural probe (the "NeuroWeb") consisting of hexagonal boron nitride and graphene, which leverages the strengths of both surface electrode array and implantable multi-electrode array. The NeuroWeb open lattice structure with a total thickness of 100 nm demonstrates high flexibility and strong adhesion, establishing a conformal and tight interface with the uneven mouse brain surface. In vivo electrophysiological recordings show that NeuroWeb detects stable single-unit activity of neurons with high signal-to-noise ratios. Furthermore, we investigate neural interactions between the somatosensory cortex and the cerebellum using transparent dual NeuroWebs and optical stimulation, and measure the times of neural signal transmission between the brain regions depending on the pathway. Therefore, NeuroWeb can be expected to pave the way for understanding complex brain networks with optical and electrophysiological mapping of the brain.
