The effect of bilateral high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on cognitive functions in schizophrenia.
Article in Schizophrenia research. Cognition, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
•Despite their major effects on positive symptoms, antipsychotics do not have a significant effect on cognition in schizophrenia•Bilateral high frequency rTMS targeting dorsolateral prefrontal cortices has been effective on working memory•Bilateral 20 Hz rTMS improved attention and verbal working memory in schizophrenia patients,•It also improved the competence of switching the perceptional set up under a disruptive effect towards new instructions, in this study.
