Effects of handedness on brain oscillatory activity during imagery and execution of upper limb movements.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Brain activation during left- and right-hand motor imagery is a popular feature used for brain-computer interfaces. However, most studies so far have only considered right-handed participants in their experiments. This study aimed to investigate how handedness influences brain activation during the processes of imagining and executing simple hand movements. EEG signals were recorded using 32 channels while participants repeatedly squeezed or imagined squeezing a ball using their left, right, or both hands. The data of 14 left-handed and 14 right-handed persons were analyzed with a focus on event-related desynchronization/synchronization patterns (ERD/S). Both handedness groups showed activation over sensorimotor areas; however, the right-handed group tended to display more bilateral patterns than the left-handed group, which is in contrast to earlier research results. Furthermore, a stronger activation during motor imagery than during motor execution could be found in both groups.
