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
US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared a Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) system with functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging-guided (fMRI) individualized treatment protocol for major depressive disorder, which employs resting state-fMRI (RS-fMRI) functional connectivity (FC) to pinpoint the target individually to increase the accuracy and effeteness of the stimulation. Furthermore, task activation-guided TMS, as well as the use of RS-fMRI local metrics for targeted the specific abnormal brain regions, are considered a precise scheme for TMS targeting. Since 1.5 T MRI is more available in hospitals, systematic evaluation of the test-retest reliability and sensitivity of fMRI metrics on 1.5 T and 3 T MRI may provide reference for the application of fMRI-guided individualized-precise TMS stimulation. Twenty participants underwent three RS-fMRI scans and one scan of finger-tapping task fMRI with self-initiated (SI) and visual-guided (VG) conditions at both 3 T and 1.5 T. Then the location reliability derived by FC (with three seed regions) and peak activation were assessed by intra-individual distance. The test-retest reliability and sensitivity of five RS-fMRI local metrics were evaluated using intra-class correlation and effect size, separately. The intra-individual distance of peak activation location between 1.5 T and 3 T was 15.8 mm and 19 mm for two conditions, respectively. The intra-individual distance for the FC derived targets at 1.5 T was 9.6-31.2 mm, compared to that of 3 T (7.6-31.1 mm). The test-retest reliability and sensitivity of RS-fMRI local metrics showed similar trends on 1.5 T and 3 T. These findings hasten the application of fMRI-guided individualized TMS treatment in clinical practice.
