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 clinical syndromes of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) may be mediated by abnormal temporal dynamics of brain networks, due to the impact of atrophy, synapse loss and neurotransmitter deficits. We tested the hypothesis that alterations in signal complexity in neural networks influence short-latency state transitions. Ninety-four participants with PSP and 64 healthy controls were recruited from two independent cohorts. All participants underwent clinical and neuropsychological testing and resting-state functional MRI. Network dynamics were assessed using hidden Markov models and neural signal complexity measured in terms of multiscale entropy. In both cohorts, PSP increased the proportion of time in networks associated with higher cognitive functions. This effect correlated with clinical severity as measured by the PSP-rating-scale, and with reduced neural signal complexity. Regional atrophy influenced abnormal brain-state occupancy, but abnormal network topology and dynamics were not restricted to areas of atrophy. Our findings show that the pathology of PSP causes clinically relevant changes in neural temporal dynamics, leading to a greater proportion of time in inefficient brain-states.
