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 development of functional neural circuits depends on the navigation of neurites (axons and dendrites) through spatially complex and molecularly diverse environments to their appropriate targets. How these processes maneuver through dense surroundings to reach their targets is a long-standing question in neuroscience. Studies of sensory systems have been especially enlightening for identifying cues that underlie connectivity due to their organization as stereotyped neural maps. Recent advances in imaging, connectomics, and genomics have profoundly deepened our understanding of these processes and uncovered new mechanisms regulating circuit development. In this review, we discuss studies of Drosophila sensory systems that provide new insights into axon and dendritic targeting, partner identification and selection, and subcellular refinement. We highlight related or divergent findings in other systems and provide an outlook for future studies.
