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

The characterization of neural signatures within the somatosensory pathway is essential for elucidating the pathogenic mechanisms of central post-stroke pain (CPSP) and developing more effective treatments such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). We explored the characteristics of thalamic neural oscillations in response to varying pain levels under multi-day local field potential (LFP) recordings and examined the influences of continuous DBS on these thalamic activities. We recorded LFPs from the left ventral posterolateral thalamus (VPL) of a patient with CPSP in the resting state under both off- and on-stimulation conditions. We observed significant differences in the power spectral density (PSD) of different pain levels in the delta, theta and gamma frequency bands of the left VPL; 75Hz DBS significantly increased the PSD of delta and decreased the PSD of low-beta, while 130Hz DBS significantly reduced the PSD of theta and low-beta. Thalamic stimulation modulated the neural oscillations related to pain, and the changes in neural activities in response to stimulation could serve as quantitative indicators for pain relief.
