Temporal-coherence induces binding of responses to sound sequences in ferret auditory cortex.
Article in iScience, 2025. 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
Binding the attributes of a sensory source is necessary to perceive it as a unified entity within its surrounding scene as in the cocktail party problem in auditory perception. It is postulated that coherent temporal modulation of a source's features binds them and enhances their perception. This study seeks evidence for rapid binding among coherently responsive single-neurons in ferret auditory cortex. In one experiment, ferrets attended to a sequence of noise bursts while we contrasted responses to simultaneous synchronized versus alternating tone sequences. We found that the contrast between synchronized (enhanced) and desynchronized (suppressed) responses rapidly increased, thus promoting their segregation. In another experiment, a sequence of an irregularly repeated multi-tone complex was embedded in a background of randomly dispersed tones. Single-unit and functional ultrasound imaging of responses to the temporally coherent tones of the complex became rapidly enhanced against the background responses, demonstrating the role of temporal-coherence in binding and segregation.
