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

Subthreshold voltage dynamics are critical for neuronal information integration, yet they remain understudied in vivo due to the limitations of current tools. While genetically encoded voltage indicators (GEVIs) offer a promising alternative, their application for deep-tissue recording using two-photon (2P) microscopy-a preferred method for deep-tissue recording-has been hindered by insufficient sensitivity for detecting millivolt-scale subthreshold signals. Here, we refined our multiparametric two-photon high-throughput screening platform to develop two novel GEVIs, JEDI3sub and JEDI3hyp, tailored explicitly for subthreshold voltage detection. Through fast 2P optical recording in awake, behaving mice, we demonstrated the superior sensitivity of JEDI3 indicators compared to JEDI-2P. We also showed that JEDI3sub can track population-level subthreshold optical tuning, while JEDI3hyp reliably captured subthreshold dynamics associated with sharp-wave ripple oscillations in hippocampal PV interneurons. Finally, JEDI3hyp facilitated extended imaging of brain-state-dependent, millivolt-scale subthreshold voltage changes across deep-layer somas, fine dendritic structures, and diverse cell types. By addressing the critical gap in 2P optical recording of subthreshold voltage dynamics, JEDI3 indicators open new avenues for studying neural information processing and its alterations in health and disease.
