Nonlinear analysis of neuronal firing modulated by sinusoidal stimulation at axons in rat hippocampus.
Article in Frontiers in computational neuroscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Electrical stimulation of the brain has shown promising prospects in treating various brain diseases. Although biphasic pulse stimulation remains the predominant clinical approach, there has been increasing interest in exploring alternative stimulation waveforms, such as sinusoidal stimulation, to improve the effectiveness of brain stimulation and to expand its application to a wider range of brain disorders. Despite this growing attention, the effects of sinusoidal stimulation on neurons, especially on their nonlinear firing characteristics, remains unclear. Methods: To address the question, 50 Hz sinusoidal stimulation was applied on Schaffer collaterals of the rat hippocampal CA1 region Results: The results demonstrate that sinusoidal electrical stimulation increased the firing rates of both pyramidal cells and interneurons, as well as altered their firing to stimulation-related patterns. Importantly, the sinusoidal stimulation increased, rather than decreased the scaling exponents of both Fano factor and Hurst exponent, indicating an increase in the long-range correlations of both pyramidal cells and interneurons. Discussion: The results firstly reported that periodic sinusoidal stimulation without long-range correlations can increase the long-range correlations of neurons in the downstream post-synaptic area. These results provide new nonlinear mechanisms of brain sinusoidal stimulation and facilitate the development of new stimulation modes.
