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

Cortical populations are in a broadly asynchronous state that is sporadically interrupted by brief epochs of coordinated population activity. Cortical models are at a loss to explain this combination of states. At one extreme are network models where recurrent inhibition dynamically stabilizes an asynchronous low activity state. While these networks are widely used, they cannot produce the coherent population-wide activity that is reported in a variety of datasets. At the other extreme are models in which strong recurrent excitation that is quickly tamed by short term synaptic depression between excitatory neurons leads to short epochs of population-wide activity. However, in these networks, inhibition plays only a perfunctory role in network stability, which is at odds with many reports across cortex. In this study we analyze spontaneously active
