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

Although it was acknowledged that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) would exhibit cognitive inflexibility, the underlying neural mechanism has not been fully clarified. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the neural substrates involved in cognitive inflexibility among individuals with OCD. A total of 42 patients with OCD and 48 healthy controls (HCs) completed clinical assessment and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data collection during cued task switching. Behavioral performances and fMRI activation were compared between the OCD group and the HC group. Psychophysiological interactions (PPIs) analyses were applied to explore functional connectivity related to task switching. Pearson correlation was used to investigate the relationships among behavioral performance, fMRI activity, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in OCD. The OCD group had a greater switch cost than HCs (χ
