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 computation of electric field in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is essentially a problem of gradient calculation for thin layers. This paper introduces a hybrid-order hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin finite element method (HDG-FEM) and systematically demonstrates its superiority in TMS computations. The discrete format of HDG-FEM employing hybrid orders for TMS is derived and, from a fundamental numerical principle perspective, this study provides the elucidation of why HDG-FEM exhibits superior gradient computation capabilities compared to the widely used CG-FEM. Furthermore, the exceptional performance of HDG-FEM in thin layer calculation is demonstrated on both modified head models and realistic head models, focusing on three aspects: calculation errors, utilization of hybrid order, and computational cost. For the calculation of E-field in thin-layer regions with parameter mutation, the L
