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

purposeTo assess quantitatively the effect of luminance on VEP amplitude and latency in visually-normals (VN) and patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

methodsVN individuals (n = 20) and those with mTBI (n = 19) participated. Those with mTBI were assessed 1-10 years post-injury (mean = 4.97 years), with the exception of one subject. Pattern VEP testing was employed using the DIOPSYS™ NOVA-TR system, with a 74 cd m

resultsIn both groups, mean VEP amplitude reduced with decrease in luminance (p < 0.05). At each luminance level, the mean VEP amplitude was significantly lower in mTBI than in the VN population (p < 0.05). In both groups, the mean VEP latency increased progressively with reduction in luminance (p < 0.05), with it being significantly higher in mTBI than in the VN population (p < 0.05).

conclusionsHigh luminance levels produced an optimal VEP response in both populations. VEP amplitude was robust, whereas latency progressively increased in both groups as luminance decreased. The latency increase with decreased luminance was significantly larger in those with mTBI, thus suggesting that latency can be used to differentiate reliably between VN individuals and those with mTBI.
