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

[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the effects of unilateral vibratory stimulation on contralateral homonymous muscle. [Participants and Methods] The study included 14 participants without a history of any disease. Participants were tested under three separate conditions: vibratory stimulation, pressure stimulation, and rest. F-waves were measured at two time points for 15 seconds in the rest position under each of the testing conditions. [Results] The F/M amplitude ratio analysis showed interactions between the vibratory stimulation‒pressure stimulation and vibratory stimulation‒rest conditions. The F-wave persistence analysis demonstrated interactions between the vibratory and pressure stimulation conditions. Vibratory stimulation significantly decreased the F/M amplitude ratio and F-wave persistence at two time points, before and during the stimulation. [Conclusion] The vibratory stimulation used in this study could suppress the contralateral homonymous muscle tone.
