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

backgroundFunctional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a non-invasive optical neuroimaging technique has demonstrated great potential in monitoring cerebral activity. Due to its portability and compatibility with medical implants, fNIRS has seen increasing applications in studying the hearing, language and cognitive functions. However, fNIRS is susceptible to artifacts related to jaw movements, such as teeth clenching, swallowing and speaking, which affect recordings over the temporal, parietal and frontal/prefrontal cortices. NEW

methodWe investigated two new approaches to control the jaw-related motion artifacts, an individually customized bite bar apparatus and a denoising algorithm namely PCA-GLM based on multi-channel fNIRS recordings from long-separation and short-separation montage. We first recorded data while subjects performed a clenching task, then an auditory task and a resting-state task with and without the bite bar.

resultsOur results have shown that jaw clenching can introduce spurious, task-evoked-like responses in fNIRS signals. A bite bar customized for each participant effectively suppressed the movement-related activities in fNIRS, at both task and resting-state conditions. Moreover, the bite bar and the PCA-GLM denoising method are shown to improve auditory responses, by significantly reducing the within-subject standard deviation, increasing the task-related contrast-to-noise ratio, and yielding stronger activations to the auditory stimuli. COMPARISON WITH EXISTING METHOD(S): The current study has demonstrated a novel method to control the jaw-related motion artifacts in fNIRS signals.

conclusionsOur method will benefit the study of the hearing, language and cognitive functions in normal healthy subjects and patients.
