The Effect of Transcranial Electrical Stimulation on the Recovery of Sleep Quality after Sleep Deprivation Based on an EEG Analysis.

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
Acute sleep deprivation can reduce the cognitive ability and change the emotional state in humans. However, little is known about how brain EEGs and facial expressions change during acute sleep deprivation (SD). Herein, we employed 34 healthy adult male subjects to undergo acute SD for 36 h, during which, their emotional states and brain EEG power were measured. The subjects were divided randomly into electronic stimulation and control groups. We performed TDCS on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex for 2 mA and 30 min in the TDCS group. These results indicated that the proportion of disgusted expressions in the electrical stimulation group was significantly less than the controls after 36 h post-acute SD, while the proportion of neutral expressions was increased post-restorative sleep. Furthermore, the electrical stimulation group presented a more significant impact on slow wave power (theta and delta) than the controls. These findings indicated that emotional changes occurred in the subjects after 36 h post-acute SD, while electrical stimulation could effectively regulate the cortical excitability and excitation inhibition balance after acute SD.
