The Relationship Between Respiratory-Related Premotor Potentials and Small Perturbations in Ventilation.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Respiratory-related premotor potentials from averaged electroencephalography (EEG) over the motor areas indicate cortical activation in healthy participants to maintain ventilation in the face of moderate inspiratory or expiratory loads. These experimental conditions are associated with respiratory discomfort, i.e., dyspnea. Premotor potentials are also observed in resting breathing in patients with reduced automatic respiratory drive or respiratory muscle strength due to respiratory or neurological disease, presumably in an attempt to maintain ventilation. The aim of this study was to determine if small voluntary increases in ventilation or smaller load-capacity imbalances, that generate an awareness of breathing but aren't necessarily dyspneic, give rise to respiratory premotor potentials in healthy participants. In 15 healthy subjects, EEG was recorded during voluntary large breaths (∼3× tidal volume, that were interspersed with smaller non-voluntary breaths in the same trial; in 10 subjects) and breathing with a 'low' inspiratory threshold load (∼7 cmH
