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

This study aimed to design a neural interface that extracts movement commands from the brain to generate appropriate intra-spinal stimulation to restore leg movement. This study comprised four steps: (1) Recording electrocorticographic (ECoG) signals and corresponding leg movements in different trials. (2) Partial laminectomy to induce spinal cord injury (SCI) and detect motor modules in the spinal cord. (3) Delivering appropriate intra-spinal stimulation to the motor modules for restoration of the movements to those documented before SCI. (4) Development of a neural interface created by sparse linear regression (SLiR) model to detect movement commands transmitted from the brain to the modules. Correlation coefficient (CC) and normalized root mean square (NRMS) error was calculated to evaluate the neural interface effectiveness. It was found that by stimulating detected spinal cord modules, joint angle evaluated before SCI was not significantly different from that of post-SCI (P > 0.05). Based on results of SLiR model, overall CC and NRMS values were 0.63 ± 0.14 and 0.34 ± 0.16 (mean ± SD), respectively. These results indicated that ECoG data contained information about intra-spinal stimulations and the developed neural interface could produce intra-spinal stimulation based on ECoG data, for restoration of leg movements after SCI.
