Modulating Individual Alpha Frequency through Short-Term Neurofeedback for Cognitive Enhancement in Healthy Young Adults.
Article in Brain sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Human alpha oscillation (7-13 Hz) has been extensively studied over the years for its connection with cognition. The individual alpha frequency (IAF), defined as the frequency that provides the highest power in the alpha band, shows a positive correlation with cognitive processes. The modulation of alpha activities has been accomplished through various approaches aimed at improving cognitive performance. However, very few studies focused on the direct modulation of IAF by shifting the peak frequency, and the understanding of IAF modulation remains highly limited. In this study, IAFs of healthy young adults were up-regulated through short-term neurofeedback training using haptic feedback. The results suggest that IAFs have good trainability and are up-regulated, also that IAFs are correlated with the enhanced cognitive performance in mental rotation and n-back tests compared to sham-neurofeedback control. This study demonstrates the feasibility of self-regulating IAF for cognition enhancement and provides potential therapeutic benefits for cognitive-impaired patients.
