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

A rapid checkerboard pattern change is used to elicit pattern-reversal visual evoked potentials (PR VEPs). CRT or LCD monitors do not allow immediate reversal of the entire pattern. The study aimed to construct a new stimulator whose characteristics approximate an instantaneous reversal and verify whether the improvement is reflected in PR VEPs. A new stimulator using a matrix of 12 × 48 independent white square LEDs was designed and compared with LCDs and CRTs. The effect on the PR VEP peak times and amplitudes of N70, P100, and P140 waves was evaluated in ten subjects. The LED stimulator showed significantly better performance in the rate of change of illuminance, change of pattern, luminance settling and stability. The PR VEP amplitudes of N75, P100, and N140 did not show significant differences. The sum of interpeak amplitudes was significantly larger for the LCD than for the other monitors. The peak times of the waves evoked by the LED were shorter than those evoked by the LCD and CRT for the N75 wave and a check size of 30´. LED stimulators are a better alternative to CRTs for PR VEPs than current LCDs. LEDs also seem to be better than CRTs, but further research is necessary to obtain significant results.
