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

Preprocessing choices present a particular challenge for researchers working with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data from young children. Steps which have been shown to be important for mitigating head motion, such as censoring and global signal regression (GSR), remain controversial, and benchmarking studies comparing preprocessing pipelines have been conducted using resting data from older participants who tend to move less than young children. Here, we conducted benchmarking of fMRI preprocessing steps in a population with high head-motion, children aged 4-8 years, leveraging a unique longitudinal, passive viewing fMRI dataset. We systematically investigated combinations of global signal regression (GSR), volume censoring, and ICA-AROMA. Pipelines were compared using previously established metrics of noise removal as well as metrics sensitive to recovery of individual differences (i.e., connectome fingerprinting), and stimulus-evoked responses (i.e., intersubject correlations; ISC). We found that: 1) the most efficacious pipeline for both noise removal and information recovery included censoring, GSR, bandpass filtering, and head motion parameter (HMP) regression, 2) ICA-AROMA performed similarly to HMP regression and did not obviate the need for censoring, 3) GSR had a minimal impact on connectome fingerprinting but improved ISC, and 4) the strictest censoring approaches reduced motion correlated edges but negatively impacted identifiability.
