TR(Acking) Individuals Down: Exploring the Effect of Temporal Resolution in Resting-State Functional MRI Fingerprinting.
Article in Human brain mapping, 2025. 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
Functional brain fingerprinting has emerged as an influential tool to quantify reliability in neuroimaging studies and to identify cognitive biomarkers in both healthy and clinical populations. Recent studies have revealed that brain fingerprints reside in the timescale-specific functional connectivity of particular brain regions. However, the impact of the acquisition's temporal resolution on fingerprinting remains unclear. In this study, we examine for the first time the reliability of functional fingerprinting derived from resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) with different whole-brain temporal resolutions (TR = 0.5, 0.7, 1, 2, and 3 s) in a cohort of 20 healthy volunteers. Our findings indicate that subject identifiability within a fixed TR is successful across different temporal resolutions, with the highest identifiability observed at TR 0.5 and 3 s (TR(s)/identifiability(%): 0.5/64; 0.7/47; 1/44; 2/44; 3/56). We discuss this observation in terms of protocol-specific effects of physiological noise aliasing. We further show that, irrespective of TR, associative brain areas make an higher contribution to subject identifiability (functional connections with highest mean ICC: within subcortical network [SUB; ICC = 0.0387], within default mode network [DMN; ICC = 0.0058]; between DMN and somato-motor [SM] network [ICC = 0.0013]; between ventral attention network [VA] and DMN [ICC = 0.0008]; between VA and SM [ICC = 0.0007]), whereas sensory-motor regions become more influential when integrating data from different TRs (functional connections with highest mean ICC: within fronto-parietal network [ICC = 0.382], within dorsal attention network [DA; ICC = 0.373]; within SUB [ICC = 0.367]; between visual network [VIS] and DA [ICC = 0.362]; within VIS [ICC = 0.358]). We conclude that functional connectivity fingerprinting derived from rs-fMRI holds significant potential for multicentric studies also employing protocols with different temporal resolutions. However, it remains crucial to consider fMRI signal's sampling rate differences in subject identifiability between data samples, in order to improve reliability and generalizability of both whole-brain and specific functional networks' results. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the practical application of functional connectivity fingerprinting, and its implications for future neuroimaging research.
