Mirror-normal difference in the late phase of mental rotation: An ERP study.
Trial report in PloS one, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Mirror-normal letter discriminations are thought to require mental rotation in order to transform the rotated alphanumeric character into its canonical orientation. Moreover, out-of-plane rotation is likely to occur after in-plane rotation to fully normalize the mirror version before the final mirror-normal judgment. The so-called rotation-related negativity, which varies with orientation, is found in both ERPonset (averaged with respect to stimulus onset) and ERPRT (averaged with respect to response time), representing the involvement of mental rotation in both time windows. Additionally, the mean amplitude of ERPRT correlates with individual performance. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the mirror-normal differences in the early and late phases of mental rotation and deduced that out-of-plane rotation is more likely to occur in the late phase and interacts with both in-plane rotation and the decision-making process, as indicated by both behavioral and electrophysiological findings.
