Stimulus type shapes the topology of cellular functional networks in mouse visual cortex.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
On the timescale of sensory processing, neuronal networks have relatively fixed anatomical connectivity, while functional interactions between neurons can vary depending on the ongoing activity of the neurons within the network. We thus hypothesized that different types of stimuli could lead those networks to display stimulus-dependent functional connectivity patterns. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed single-cell resolution electrophysiological data from the Allen Institute, with simultaneous recordings of stimulus-evoked activity from neurons across 6 different regions of mouse visual cortex. Comparing the functional connectivity patterns during different stimulus types, we made several nontrivial observations: (1) while the frequencies of different functional motifs were preserved across stimuli, the identities of the neurons within those motifs changed; (2) the degree to which functional modules are contained within a single brain region increases with stimulus complexity. Altogether, our work reveals unexpected stimulus-dependence to the way groups of neurons interact to process incoming sensory information.
