Spectral quantitative and semi-quantitative EEG provide complementary information on the life-long effects of early childhood malnutrition on cognitive decline.

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
Objective: This study compares the complementary information from semi-quantitative EEG (sqEEG) and spectral quantitative EEG (spectral-qEEG) to detect the life-long effects of early childhood malnutrition on the brain. Methods: Resting-state EEGs ( Results: The univariate LME showed highly significant differences between previously malnourished and control groups ( Conclusion: This research has extended our prior work with spectral-qEEG and the long-term impact of early childhood malnutrition on the brain. Our findings showed that sqNPS was significantly linked to accelerated cognitive aging at 45-51 years of age. While sqNPS and spectral-qEEG produced comparable results, our study indicated that combining sqNPS and spectral-qEEG yielded better performance than either method alone, suggesting that a multimodal approach could be advantageous for future investigations. Significance: Based on our findings, a semi-quantitative approach utilizing GTE could be a valuable diagnostic tool for detecting the lasting impacts of childhood malnutrition. Notably, sqEEG has not been previously explored or reported as a biomarker for assessing the longitudinal effects of malnutrition. Furthermore, our observations suggest that sqEEG offers unique features and information not captured by spectral quantitative EEG analysis and could lead to its improvement.
