Visual modulation of auditory evoked potentials in the cat.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Visual modulation of the auditory system is not only a neural substrate for multisensory processing, but also serves as a backup input underlying cross-modal plasticity in deaf individuals. Event-related potential (ERP) studies in humans have provided evidence of a multiple-stage audiovisual interactions, ranging from tens to hundreds of milliseconds after the presentation of stimuli. However, it is still unknown if the temporal course of visual modulation in the auditory ERPs can be characterized in animal models. EEG signals were recorded in sedated cats from subdermal needle electrodes. The auditory stimuli (clicks) and visual stimuli (flashes) were timed by two independent Poison processes and were presented either simultaneously or alone. The visual-only ERPs were subtracted from audiovisual ERPs before being compared to the auditory-only ERPs. N1 amplitude showed a trend of transiting from suppression-to-facilitation with a disruption at ~ 100-ms flash-to-click delay. We concluded that visual modulation as a function of SOA with extended range is more complex than previously characterized with short SOAs and its periodic pattern can be interpreted with "phase resetting" hypothesis.
