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

The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is well recognized for its role in cognitive functions and activating action plans. In contrast, the properties of prefrontal neurons and their role in multisensory processing are less well studied. To address this question, we recorded the responses of single units from areas 8 and 46 of two female rhesus macaques while they were presented with visual, auditory, and audiovisual motion stimuli. The majority of DLPFC neurons responded to these sensory stimuli, with similar percentages of auditory-only, visual-only, and audiovisual neurons. Approximately one-third of responsive neurons exhibited significant super- or subadditive interactions in response to the pairing of auditory and visual stimuli, revealing significant nonlinearities in their responses. Decoding motion signals from the population activity robustly differentiated multisensory from unisensory trials and also unisensory auditory and visual trials from each other. These results demonstrate that dorsolateral prefrontal neurons integrate auditory and visual motion signals, extending multisensory computations beyond sensory cortices into prefrontal circuits that support higher-order cognition.
