Spatial and temporal correlations in neural networks with structured connectivity.
Article in Physical review research. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Correlated fluctuations in the activity of neural populations reflect the network's dynamics and connectivity. The temporal and spatial dimensions of neural correlations are interdependent. However, prior theoretical work mainly analyzed correlations in either spatial or temporal domains, oblivious to their interplay. We show that the network dynamics and connectivity jointly define the spatiotemporal profile of neural correlations. We derive analytical expressions for pairwise correlations in networks of binary units with spatially arranged connectivity in one and two dimensions. We find that spatial interactions among units generate multiple timescales in auto- and cross-correlations. Each timescale is associated with fluctuations at a particular spatial frequency, making a hierarchical contribution to the correlations. External inputs can modulate the correlation timescales when spatial interactions are nonlinear, and the modulation effect depends on the operating regime of network dynamics. These theoretical results open new ways to relate connectivity and dynamics in cortical networks via measurements of spatiotemporal neural correlations.
