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
This study aimed to explore the effect of various noise definition criteria in linear extrapolation technique to noise level baseline on steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP)-based visual acuity assessment. Four noise definition criteria on frequency-domain, i.e., the mean amplitude at the two adjacent bins of the target frequency, the mean amplitude of a narrow frequency band on either side of the target frequency, the mean amplitude at a broad frequency band except for the target frequency and its harmonic frequencies, and the mean amplitude at a broad frequency band at resting state, corresponding to noise 1, noise 2, noise 3, and noise 4, were introduced to calculate noise level baselines. Then, two experiments were implemented. In experiment 1, electroencephalography (EEG) signals of resting state were recorded for fourteen subjects. In experiment 2, the visual stimuli of vertical sinusoidal gratings at six spatial frequency steps were used to induce SSVEPs for twelve subjects. Finally, SSVEP visual acuity was obtained via the SSVEP visual acuity threshold estimation of linear extrapolation technique to noise level baseline with various noise definition criteria. The bland-Altman analysis found that the difference between subjective Freiburg Visual Acuity and Contrast Test (FrACT) and objective SSVEP visual acuity was - 0.0892, - 0.1071, - 0.0745, and - 0.0804 logMAR and the 95% limit of agreement was 0.2150, 0.2146, 0.2046, and 0.2189 logMAR for noise 1, noise 2, noise 3, and noise 4, respectively, indicating that visual acuity of noise 3 definition criterion, i.e., the mean amplitude at a broad frequency band except for the target frequency and its harmonic frequencies, showed the best performance. This study recommended noise definition criterion 3 of the mean amplitude at a broad frequency band to calculate the noise level baseline in the linear extrapolation of SSVEP-based visual acuity assessment.
