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

Human behavior and cognitive function correlate with complex patterns of spatio-temporal brain dynamics, which can be simulated using computational models with different degrees of biophysical realism. We used a data-driven optimization algorithm to determine and classify the types of local dynamics that enable the reproduction of different observables derived from functional magnetic resonance recordings. The phase space analysis of the resulting equations revealed a predominance of stable spiral attractors, which optimized the similarity to the empirical data in terms of the synchronization, metastability, and functional connectivity dynamics. For stable limit cycles, departures from harmonic oscillations improved the fit in terms of functional connectivity dynamics. Eigenvalue analyses showed that proximity to a bifurcation improved the accuracy of the simulation for wakefulness, whereas deep sleep was associated with increased stability. Our results provide testable predictions that constrain the landscape of suitable biophysical models, while supporting noise-driven dynamics close to a bifurcation as a canonical mechanism underlying the complex fluctuations that characterize endogenous brain activity.
