A hierarchy of time constants and reliable signal propagation in the marmoset cerebral cortex.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A hierarchy of timescales in the cerebral cortex is functionally desirable for rapid information processing in sensory areas and slow time integration in association areas. Here, through an analysis of electrocorticography (ECoG) data, we identified a timescale hierarchy in the neocortex of marmoset, a primate species commonly used in neuroscience. Constrained by the anatomical and electrophysiological data, we developed a multi-regional model of the marmoset neocortex that captures the observed timescale hierarchy phenomenon. Furthermore, we used the model to investigate how the neocortex reconciles information integration on distinct timescales in local areas with reliable signal propagation globally across regions. We found that a near-criticality state is optimal for both localized signal integration within areas and reliable signal propagation across areas in the multi-regional neocortex. Our model also mechanically explains recent experimental observations that the structural and functional connectivities are less correlated in association areas than in sensory areas.
