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

Our visual system usually provides a unique and functional representation of the external world. At times, however, the visual system has more than one compelling interpretation of the same retinal stimulus; in this case, neural populations compete for perceptual dominance to resolve ambiguity. Spatial and temporal context can guide perceptual experience. Recent evidence shows that ambiguous retinal stimuli are sometimes resolved by enhancing either similarity or differences among multiple percepts. Divisive normalization is a canonical neural computation that enables context-dependent sensory processing by attenuating a neuron's response by other neurons. Experiments here show that divisive normalization can account for perceptual representations of either similarity enhancement (so-called grouping) or difference enhancement, offering a unified framework for opposite perceptual outcomes.
