Efficient Spatial Estimation of Perceptual Thresholds for Retinal Implants via Gaussian Process Regression.
Article in ArXiv, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Retinal prostheses restore vision by electrically stimulating surviving neurons, but calibrating perceptual thresholds (i.e., the minimum stimulus intensity required for perception) remains a time-intensive challenge, especially for high-electrode-count devices. Since neighboring electrodes exhibit spatial correlations, we propose a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) framework to predict thresholds at unsampled locations while leveraging uncertainty estimates to guide adaptive sampling. Using perceptual threshold data from four Argus II users, we show that GPR with a Matern kerneĺ provides more accurate threshold predictions than a Radial Basis Function (RBF) kernel (
