Effect of long-term paired associative stimulation on the modulation of cortical sensorimotor oscillations after spinal cord injury.
Article in Spinal cord series and cases, 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
STUDY
designA prospective interventional case series.
objectivesTo explore changes in the modulation of cortical sensorimotor oscillations after long-term paired associative stimulation (PAS) in participants with spinal cord injury (SCI).
settingBioMag Laboratory, HUS Diagnostic Center, University of Helsinki and Helsinki University Hospital, Helsinki, Finland.
methodsFive patients with chronic incomplete SCI received unilateral spinal PAS to upper limb for 16-22 days. Changes in the modulation of sensorimotor oscillations in response to tactile stimulus and active and imaginary hand movements were assessed with magnetoencephalography recorded before and after the intervention.
resultsPAS restored the modulation of sensorimotor oscillations in response to active hand movement in four patients, whereas the modulation following tactile stimulation remained unaltered. The observed change was larger in the hemisphere that received PAS and preceded the clinical effect of the intervention.
conclusionsLong-term spinal PAS treatment, which enhances the motor functions of SCI patients, also restores the modulation of cortical sensorimotor oscillations.
