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

Neuronal firing patterning in the dentate gyrus of patients with epilepsy remains unknown at the microcircuit level. Advancements in high-density CMOS-based microelectrode arrays can be harnessed to study network activity with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution. We use novel computational methods with high-density electrophysiology recordings to spatially map network activity of human hippocampal brain slices from six patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. Two slices from the dentate gyrus exhibited synchronous bursting activity in the presence of low magnesium media with kainic acid, representative of seizure-like behavior. We bridged microscale circuit dynamics with alterations in theta oscillations at the network scale. Future studies may apply this approach to spatially elucidate functional networks and their possible role in seizures.
