Test-Retest Reliability of EEG Aperiodic Components in Resting and Mental Task States.
Article in Brain topography, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Aperiodic activity is derived from the electroencephalography (EEG) power spectrum and reflects changes in the slope and shifts of the broadband spectrum. Studies have shown inconsistent test-retest reliability of the aperiodic components. This study systematically measured how the test-retest reliability of the aperiodic components was affected by data duration (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 min), states (resting with eyes closed, resting with eyes open, performing mental arithmetic, recalling the events of the day, and mentally singing songs), and methods (the Fitting Oscillations and One-Over-F (FOOOF) and Linear Mixed-Effects Regression (LMER)) at both short (90-min) and long (one-month) intervals. The results showed that aperiodic components had fair, good, or excellent test-retest reliability (ranging from 0.53 to 0.91) at both short and long intervals. It is recommended that better reliability of the aperiodic components be obtained using data durations longer than 3 min, the resting state with eyes closed, the mental arithmetic task state, and the LMER method.
