Serotonin Modulates Stellate Cell Excitability via 5-HT Receptors and HCN Channels in the Mouse Anteroventral Cochlear Nucleus.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Serotonergic projections innervate both the dorsal and ventral cochlear nuclei; however, the electrophysiological consequences of serotonergic input in the ventral cochlear nucleus (VCN) remain incompletely understood. This study aimed to identify the serotonin receptor subtypes involved in serotonergic modulation of stellate cells in the mouse anteroventral cochlear nucleus (AVCN) and to determine the underlying ion channel mechanisms. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were performed in acute brain slices obtained from postnatal day 12-17 mice. Bath application of serotonin (25 µM) induced membrane depolarization (~5 mV) and increased action potential firing. Pharmacological experiments demonstrated that antagonists of 5-HT1A, 5-HT2A, and 5-HT2C receptors partially reversed the depolarization and reduced serotonin-induced inward currents, indicating that multiple receptor subtypes contribute to serotonergic excitation.
