Unraveling the mesoscale resting-state functional connectivity of ocular dominance columns in humans using high-resolution functional MRI.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 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
Despite their importance for visual perception, functional connectivity between ocular dominance columns (ODCs) in the human primary visual cortex (V1) remains largely unknown. Using high-resolution functional MRI (fMRI), we localized ODCs and assessed their resting-state functional connectivity (rs-FC) in 12 human adults. Consistent with anatomical studies in animals, we found stronger rs-FC in the middle compared to deep and superficial cortical depths and selectively stronger rs-FC between ODCs with alike compared to unalike ocular polarity. Beyond what was known from animal models, and consistent with human perceptual biases, intra- and interhemispheric rs-FC was stronger in peripheral (compared to central) and in dorsal (compared to ventral) V1 subregions. Lastly, rs-FC patterns correlated with ODC maps, suggesting that ODC maps can be predicted from rs-FC patterns within V1. These results highlight the heterogeneity in rs-FC between ODCs across cortical depths and V1 subfields, underscoring their likely association with human perceptual features.
