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

Measures of functional brain network segregation and integration vary with an individual's age, cognitive ability, and health status. Based on these relationships, these measures are frequently examined to study and quantify large-scale patterns of network organization in both basic and applied research settings. However, there is limited information on the stability and reliability of the network measures as applied to functional time-series; these measurement properties are critical to understand if the measures are to be used for individualized characterization of brain networks. We examine measurement reliability using several human datasets (Midnight Scan Club and Human Connectome Project [both Young Adult and Aging]). These datasets include participants with multiple scanning sessions, and collectively include individuals spanning a broad age range of the adult lifespan. The measurement and reliability of measures of resting-state network segregation and integration vary in relation to data quantity for a given participant's scan session; notably, both properties asymptote when estimated using adequate amounts of clean data. We demonstrate how this source of variability can systematically bias interpretation of differences and changes in brain network organization if appropriate safeguards are not included. These observations have important implications for cross-sectional, longitudinal, and interventional comparisons of functional brain network organization.
