Stimulus-dependent synaptic plasticity underlies neuronal circuitry refinement in the mouse primary visual cortex.
Article in Cell reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Perceptual learning improves our ability to interpret sensory stimuli present in our environment through experience. Despite its importance, the underlying mechanisms that enable perceptual learning in our sensory cortices are still not fully understood. In this study, we used in vivo two-photon imaging to investigate the functional and structural changes induced by visual stimulation in the mouse primary visual cortex (V1). Our results demonstrate that repeated stimulation leads to a refinement of V1 circuitry by decreasing the number of responsive neurons while potentiating their response. At the synaptic level, we observe a reduction in the number of dendritic spines and an overall increase in spine AMPA receptor levels in the same subset of neurons. In addition, visual stimulation induces synaptic potentiation in neighboring spines within individual dendrites. These findings provide insights into the mechanisms of synaptic plasticity underlying information processing in the neocortex.
