Open access dataset of task-free hemodynamic activity in 4-month-old infants during sleep using fNIRS.
Article in Scientific data, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Spontaneous, task-free, hemodynamic activity of the brain provides useful information about its functional organization, as it can describe how different brain regions communicate to each other. Neuroimaging studies measuring the spontaneous activity of the brain are conducted while the participants are not engaged in a particular task or receiving any external stimulation. This approach is particularly useful in developmental populations as brain activity can be measured without the need for infant compliance and the risks of data contamination due to motion artifacts. In this project we sought to i) characterize the intrinsic functional organization of the brain in 4-month-old infants and ii) investigate whether bilingualism, as a specific environmental factor, could lead to adaptations on functional brain network development at this early age. Measures of spontaneous hemodynamic activity were acquired in 4-month-old infants (n = 104) during natural sleep using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). Emphasis was placed on acquiring high-quality data that could lead to reproducible results and serve as a valuable resource for researchers investigating the developing functional connectome.
