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

Cognitive processes such as action planning and decision-making require the integration of multiple sensory modalities in response to temporal cues, yet the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Sleep has a crucial role for memory consolidation and promoting cognitive flexibility. Our aim is to identify the role of sleep in integrating different modalities to enhance cognitive flexibility and temporal task execution while identifying the specific brain regions that mediate this process. We have designed "Auditory-Gated Patience-to-Action" Task in which mice should process different auditory signals before action execution as well as analyzing the visual inputs for feedback of their action. Mice could learn the task rule and apply it only after sleeping period and could keep the performance constant across sessions. c-fos positive cells showed the involvement of prelimbic cortex (PrL) during task execution. Chemo-genetic inhibition verified that PrL is required for proper signal response and action timing. These findings emphasize that sleep and cortical activity are keys for cognitive flexibility in adapting to different modalities.
