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

Children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy (HCP) often show disturbances of somatosensation. Despite extensive evidence of somatosensory deficits, neurophysiological alterations associated with somatosensory deficits in children with HCP have not been elucidated. Here, we aim to assess phase synchrony within and between contralateral primary (S1) and secondary (S2) somatosensory areas in children with HCP. Intra-regional and inter-regional phase synchronizations within and between S1 and S2 were estimated from somatosensory evoked fields (SEFs) in response to passive pneumatic stimulation of contralateral upper extremities and recorded with pediatric magnetoencephalography (MEG) in children with HCP and typically developing (TD) children. We found aberrant phase synchronizations within S1 and between S1 and S2 in both hemispheres in children with HCP. Specifically, the less-affected (LA) hemisphere demonstrated diminished phase synchronizations after the stimulus onset up to ~120 ms compared to the more-affected (MA) hemisphere and the dominant hemisphere of TD children, while the MA hemisphere showed enhanced phase synchronizations after ~100 ms compared to the LA hemisphere and the TD dominant hemisphere. Our findings indicate abnormal somatosensory functional connectivity in both hemispheres of children with HCP.
