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

The diaphragmatic motor-evoked potential (MEP) induced by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) permits electrophysiological assessment of the cortico-diaphragmatic pathway. Despite the value of TMS for investigating diaphragm motor integrity in health and disease, reliability of the technique has not been established. The study aim was to determine within- and between-session reproducibility of surface electromyogram recordings of TMS-evoked diaphragm potentials. Fifteen healthy young adults participated (6 females, age = 29 ± 7 yr). Diaphragm activation was determined by gradually increasing the stimulus intensity from 60 to 100% of maximal stimulator output (MSO). A minimum of seven stimulations were performed at each intensity. A second block of stimuli was delivered 30 min later for within-day comparisons, and a third block was performed on a separate day for between-day comparisons. Reliability of diaphragm MEPs was assessed at 100% MSO using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and 95% limits of agreement (LOA). MEP latency (ICC = 0.984,
