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

Brain-computer interface (BCI) is a rapidly evolving technology that has the potential to widely influence research, clinical and recreational use. Non-invasive BCI approaches are particularly common as they can impact a large number of participants safely and at a relatively low cost. Where traditional non-invasive BCIs were used for simple computer cursor tasks, it is now increasingly common for these systems to control robotic devices for complex tasks that may be useful in daily life. In this review, we provide an overview of the general BCI framework as well as the various methods that can be used to record neural activity, extract signals of interest, and decode brain states. In this context, we summarize the current state-of-the-art of non-invasive BCI research, focusing on trends in both the application of BCIs for controlling external devices and algorithm development to optimize their use. We also discuss various open-source BCI toolboxes and software, and describe their impact on the field at large.
