Integrative interaction of emotional speech in audio-visual modality.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Emotional clues are always expressed in many ways in our daily life, and the emotional information we receive is often represented by multiple modalities. Successful social interactions require a combination of multisensory cues to accurately determine the emotion of others. The integration mechanism of multimodal emotional information has been widely investigated. Different brain activity measurement methods were used to determine the location of brain regions involved in the audio-visual integration of emotional information, mainly in the bilateral superior temporal regions. However, the methods adopted in these studies are relatively simple, and the materials of the study rarely contain speech information. The integration mechanism of emotional speech in the human brain still needs further examinations. In this paper, a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study was conducted using event-related design to explore the audio-visual integration mechanism of emotional speech in the human brain by using dynamic facial expressions and emotional speech to express emotions of different valences. Representational similarity analysis (RSA) based on regions of interest (ROIs), whole brain searchlight analysis, modality conjunction analysis and supra-additive analysis were used to analyze and verify the role of relevant brain regions. Meanwhile, a weighted RSA method was used to evaluate the contributions of each candidate model in the best fitted model of ROIs. The results showed that only the left insula was detected by all methods, suggesting that the left insula played an important role in the audio-visual integration of emotional speech. Whole brain searchlight analysis, modality conjunction analysis and supra-additive analysis together revealed that the bilateral middle temporal gyrus (MTG), right inferior parietal lobule and bilateral precuneus might be involved in the audio-visual integration of emotional speech from other aspects.
