The visual evoked potential is a sensitive and powerful measure of experience-dependent visual cortical plasticity in mice.
Review in Current opinion in neurobiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Despite the explosion of high-tech methods to measure activity in the mouse visual cortex, the venerable visually evoked potential (VEP) continues to prove its worth as a sensitive measure of experience-dependent cortical plasticity. The VEP recorded in layer 4 is a good estimate of the strength of feedforward synaptic excitation, and changes in amplitude correspond closely to changes in the peak firing rate of principal cells. Chronic recording of VEPs in awake mice have enabled longitudinal study of modifications induced by selective visual experience or deprivation, and these have revealed several novel forms of plasticity. The VEP provides a good estimate of spatial acuity that compares well with values obtained by behavioral approaches. Furthermore, recordings of the local field potential through the same electrodes reveal changes in oscillatory activity that reflect differential recruitment of inhibitory networks. Thus, the VEP remains a powerful tool for the study of visual cortical plasticity.
