Direct neural coding of speech: Reconsideration of Whalen et al. (2006) (L).
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Previous brain imaging results indicated that speech perception proceeded independently of the auditory primitives that are the product of primary auditory cortex [Whalen, Benson, Richardson, Swainson, Clark, Lai, Mencl, Fulbright, Constable, and Liberman (2006). J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 119, 575-581]. Recent evidence using electrocorticography [Hamilton, Oganian, Hall, and Chang (2021). Cell 184, 4626-4639] indicates that there is a more direct connection from subcortical regions to cortical speech regions than previous studies had shown. Although the mechanism differs, the Hamilton, Oganian, Hall, and Chang result supports the original conclusion even more strongly: Speech perception does not rely on the analysis of primitives from auditory analysis. Rather, the speech signal is processed as speech from the beginning.
