Neuromodulation on the ground and in the clouds: a mini review of transcranial direct current stimulation for altering performance in interactive driving and flight simulators.
Review in Frontiers in psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has emerged as a promising tool for cognitive enhancement, especially within simulated virtual environments that provide realistic yet controlled methods for studying human behavior. This mini review synthesizes current research on the application of tDCS to improve performance in interactive driving and flight simulators. The existing literature indicates that tDCS can enhance acute performance for specific tasks, such as maintaining a safe distance from another car or executing a successful plane landing. However, the effects of tDCS may be context-dependent, indicating a need for a broader range of simulated scenarios. Various factors, including participant expertise, task difficulty, and the targeted brain region, can also influence tDCS outcomes. To further strengthen the rigor of this research area, it is essential to address and minimize different forms of research bias to achieve true generalizability. This comprehensive analysis aims to bridge the gap between theoretical understanding and practical application of neurotechnology to study the relationship between the brain and behavior, ultimately providing insights into the effectiveness of tDCS in transportation settings.
