A TALE OF TWO TAILS: PREFERRED AND ANTI-PREFERRED NATURAL STIMULI IN VISUAL CORTEX.

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
An ongoing quest in neuroscience is to find the preferred stimulus of a sensory neuron. This search lays the foundation for understanding how selectivity emerges in the primate visual stream-from simple edge-detecting neurons to highly-selective face neurons-as well as for the architectures and activation functions of deep neural networks. The prevailing notion is that a visual neuron primarily responds to a single preferred visual feature, like an oriented edge or the shape of an object, resulting in a "one-tailed" distribution of responses to natural images. However, surprisingly, we instead find "two-tailed" response distributions of primate visual cortical neurons, suggesting that these neurons have both preferred
