Altered brain network centrality in patients with orbital fracture: A resting‑state functional MRI study.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The present study aimed to investigate potential functional network brain-activity abnormalities in individuals with orbital fracture (OF) using the voxel-wise degree centrality (DC) technique. The present study included 20 patients with OF (12 males and 8 females) and 20 healthy controls (HC; 12 males and 8 females), who were matched for gender, age and educational attainment. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in the resting state has been widely applied in several fields. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were calculated to distinguish between patients with OF and HCs. In addition, correlation analyses were performed between behavioral performance and average DC values in various locations. The DC technique was used to assess unprompted brain activity. Right cerebellum 9 region (Cerebelum_9_R) and left cerebellar peduncle 2 area (Cerebelum_Crus2_L) DC values of patients with OF were increased compared with those in HCs. Cerebelum_9_R and Cerebelum_Crus2_L had area under the ROC curve values of 0.983 and 1.000, respectively. Patients with OF appear to have several brain regions that exhibited aberrant brain network characteristics, which raises the possibility of neuropathic causes and offers novel therapeutic options.
