From adolescence to adulthood: functional fingerprints of high-level visual cortex reveal differential development of visuospatial processing.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Reading, social interaction, and navigation rely on visuospatial computations by population receptive fields (pRFs) in category-selective regions of the ventral, lateral, and dorsal streams. However, how visuospatial computations vary across streams and category, or develop during adolescence is unknown. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and pRF modeling in adolescents and adults, we investigate the development of pRFs and category-selectivity. Adolescents and adults show a consistent functional fingerprint whereby, pRF location, pRF size, and visual field coverage vary by category-selectivity, stream, and hemisphere. While pRF location is largely adult-like by adolescence, pRF size, visual field coverage, and category-selectivity exhibit region-specific increases and decreases from adolescence to adulthood. Together, these findings delineate a timeline of continued functional plasticity during adolescence and provide a multidimensional framework for understanding the organization of high-level visual cortex.
