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

Forward entrainment refers to that part of the entrainment process that persists after termination of an entraining stimulus. Hickok et al. (2015) reported forward entrainment in signal detection that lasted for two post-stimulus cycles. In a recent paper, Sun et al. (2021) reported new data which suggested an absence of entrainment effects (Eur. J. Neurosci, 1-18, doi.org/10.1111/ejn.15367). Here we show that when Sun et al.'s data are analysed using unbiased detection-theoretic measures, a clear antiphasic bicyclic pattern of entrainment is observed. We further show that the measure of entrainment strength used by Sun et al., the normalized Fourier transform of performance curves, is not only erroneously calculated but is also unreliable in estimating entrainment strength due to signal-processing artifacts.
