Increased prefrontal cortex connectivity during cognitive challenge assessed by fNIRS imaging.
Article in Biomedical optics express, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 44 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
In this study, functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and the graph theory approach were used to access the functional connectivity (FC) of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in a resting state and during increased mental workload. For this very purpose, a pattern recognition-based test was developed, which elicited a strong response throughout the PFC during the test condition. FC parameters obtained during stimulation were found increased compared to those in a resting state after correlation based signal improvement (CBSI), which can attenuate those components of fNIRS signals which are unrelated to neural activity. These results indicate that the cognitive challenge increased the FC in the PFC and suggests a great potential in investigating FC in various cognitive states.
