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 current study investigated whether the age of healthy adults could predict the peak gamma frequency and the peak amplitudes of VEP components (N1, P2). 49 healthy participants (aged between 19 and 52 years) underwent EEG recordings during a visual task eliciting clear gamma frequency oscillations and VEP activities. After eliminating noisy and outlier data, data from 41 participants were analysed using simple linear regression. The results indicated that age was a significant predictor of peak gamma frequency and the peak amplitude of VEP-N1 but not the peak amplitude of VEP-P2. Age was negatively associated with peak gamma frequency and the peak amplitude of VEP-N1. These findings support previous research indicating that ageing is associated with decreased cortical inhibition, highlighting the importance of GABA in maintaining cortical E-I balance.
