Is the impact of spontaneous movements on early visual cortex species specific?
Review in Trends in neurosciences, 2025. 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
Recent studies in non-human primates do not find pronounced signals related to the animal's own body movements in the responses of neurons in the visual cortex. This is notable because such pronounced signals have been widely observed in the visual cortex of mice. Here, we discuss factors that may contribute to the differences observed between species, such as state, slow neural drift, eccentricity, and changes in retinal input. The interpretation of movement-related signals in the visual cortex also exemplifies the challenge of identifying the sources of correlated variables. Dissecting these sources is central for understanding the functional roles of movement-related signals. We suggest a functional classification of the possible sources, aimed at facilitating cross-species comparative approaches to studying the neural mechanisms of vision during natural behavior.
