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

We extend the existing ordinary differential equations modeling neural electrical activity to include the memory effect of electromagnetic induction through magnetic flux, used to describe time varying electromagnetic field. Through the multi-scale expansion in the semi-discrete approximation, we show that the neural network dynamical equations can be governed by the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. The analytical and numerical envelop soliton of this equation are reported. The results obtained suggest the possibility of collective information processing and sharing in the nervous system, operating in both the spatial and temporal domains in the form of localized modulated waves. The effects of memristive synaptic electromagnetic induction coupling and perturbation on the modulated action potential dynamics examined. Large electromagnetic induction coupling strength may contribute to signal block as the amplitude of modulated waves are observed to decrease. This could help in the development of a chemical brain anaesthesia for some brain pathologies.
