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

This special section collects four articles on the application of diffuse optics to measure cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation. The possibility of using near-infrared light to collect cerebral hemodynamic and metabolic information through the intact scalp and skull was first proposed in the 1970s [1]. Commercial cerebral oximeters were developed in the 1990s, and functional measurements of brain activation, which signaled the birth of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), were first reported in 1993 [2], [3], [4], [5]. Oscillatory cerebral hemodynamics were also investigated in relation to functional and diagnostic applications [6], [7], [8], [9]. Journal special issues were published to celebrate the 20th [10] and 30th [11] anniversaries of fNIRS, and numerous review articles have provided overviews of the field of noninvasive optical measurements of the brain [12], [13], [14], [15].
