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

As brain implants evolve towards higher channel density, efficient on-implant processing of the acquired signals becomes essential to overcome constraints in power, area, and data transmission. Here we propose a data reduction framework, specific to extra-cellular neuronal action potentials. This approach picks a small number of salient spike samples, using which the spike waveshape is interpolated. Attributes of salient samples are sent off the implant to reconstruct the spike waveshape on the external side of the system. In addition to exhibiting high data compression capability, this technique is highly hardware efficient, hence well suits for brain-implantable neural recording microsystems with high channel counts. Based on the proposed framework, a 128-channel neural signal compressor was implemented using a 130-nm CMOS technology, and measured 1.05 × 0.35 mm
