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 hierarchical organization of the visual system preserves topology, which is often lost in the "raw" human retinotopic maps derived from BOLD fMRI recordings. Here, we present the protocol for generating topology-preserving and smooth retinotopic maps from human retinotopy fMRI data. We describe data pre-processing, 3D surface flattening, and selection of the region of interest (ROI), followed by smoothing of the retinotopic maps within the ROI. This approach can be applied to visual cortical areas V1, V2, and V3 simultaneously. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tu et al. (2021).
