Identification of White Matter Networks Engaged in Object (Face) Recognition Showing Differential Responses to Modulated Stimulus Strength.
Article in Cerebral cortex communications, 2020. 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
Blood-oxygenation-level-dependent (BOLD) signals in magnetic resonance imaging indirectly reflect neural activity in cortex, but they are also detectable in white matter (WM). BOLD signals in WM exhibit strong correlations with those in gray matter (GM) in a resting state, but their interpretation and relationship to GM activity in a task are unclear. We performed a parametric visual object recognition task designed to modulate the BOLD signal response in GM regions engaged in higher order visual processing, and measured corresponding changes in specific WM tracts. Human faces embedded in different levels of random noise have previously been shown to produce graded changes in BOLD activation in for example, the fusiform gyrus, as well as in electrophysiological (N170) evoked potentials. The magnitudes of BOLD responses in both GM regions and selected WM tracts varied monotonically with the stimulus strength (noise level). In addition, the magnitudes and temporal profiles of signals in GM and WM regions involved in the task coupled strongly across different task parameters. These findings reveal the network of WM tracts engaged in object (face) recognition and confirm that WM BOLD signals may be directly affected by neural activity in GM regions to which they connect.
