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

In the vertebrate retina, short wavelength-sensitive S-cones and their downstream interneurons play unique roles in both image forming and non-image-forming vision. Due to their conserved relative rarity in the retina and the high density of rods found in many model species, S-cone circuitry is challenging to examine in detail. Here, we combine electrophysiology, high-quality 3D electron microscopy reconstruction, and electroretinography to characterize in fine detail the S-cone selective circuitry in the outer plexiform layer (OPL) of the cone-dominant retina of the thirteen-lined ground squirrel (13-LGS). The 13-LGS retina has no S-OFF bipolar cell, and both horizontal cell types show distinct S-cone preferences. Signal processing in the 13-LGS OPL appears to have evolved for separate channels that independently modulate synaptic sensitivity of S- and M-cone networks.
