Assessment of cerebral oxygenation during prolonged simulated driving using near infrared spectroscopy: its implications for fatigue development.

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
Information on cerebral oxygenation during prolonged driving in healthy humans may help to explain the cause and development of central fatigue and its effects on cortex activities. The objective of this study is to investigate the time course of cerebral oxygenation during a prolonged driving task. Forty healthy male subjects were randomly divided into two groups: task group (Task) and control group (CNL). All subjects were required to rest well prior to the experiment. For the task group, subjects were required to perform the simulated driving task for 3 h. Cerebral oxygenation signal was monitored from the left frontal lobe using near infrared spectroscopy throughout the entire experiment. Significant increases in the concentrations of HbO(2) (DeltaCHbO(2)) and HbT (DeltaCHbT) were recorded at the start of driving task compared with the resting value (p < 0.01). The cerebral oxygen saturation in the Task group was found to be significantly lower following three hours of driving compared with that in the CNL (F = 16.95, p < 0.001). In addition, a significant difference in selective reaction time was observed between the Task group and CNL during the post-task period (p = 0.023). The results demonstrated that the cerebral oxygenation is closely related to the mental stress. The decrease in the cerebral oxygen saturation may indicate reduced cerebral oxygen delivery, and this may be an important factor affecting central fatigue development during prolonged driving.
