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

Spinal motoneurons are the final output of spinal circuits that engage skeletal muscles to generate motor behaviors. Many motoneurons exhibit bistable behavior, alternating between a quiescent resting state and a self-sustained firing mode, classically attributed to plateau potentials driven by persistent inward currents. This intrinsic property is important for normal movement control, but can become dysregulated, causing motor function deficits, like spasticity. Here we use a conductance-based single-compartment model, together with mouse spinal slice recordings, to investigate the ionic interactions underlying motoneuron bistability. We show that synergistic interactions among high-voltage-activated L-type Ca
