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

Traditionally, in neuroimaging, model-free analyses are used to find significant differences between brain states via signal detection theory. Depending on the a priori assumptions about the underlying data, different spatio-temporal features can be analysed. Alternatively, model-based techniques infer features from the data and compare significance from model parameters. However, to assess transitions from one brain state to another remains a challenge in current paradigms. Here, we introduce a "Dynamic Sensitivity Analysis" framework that quantifies transitions between brain states in terms of stimulation ability to rebalance spatio-temporal brain activity towards a target state such as healthy brain dynamics. In practice, it means building a whole-brain model fitted to the spatio-temporal description of brain dynamics, and applying systematic stimulations in-silico to assess the optimal strategy to drive brain dynamics towards a target state. Further, we show how Dynamic Sensitivity Analysis extends to various brain stimulation paradigms, ultimately contributing to improving the efficacy of personalised clinical interventions.
