Microstructure of the residual corticofugal projection from primary motor cortex in chronic stroke.
Article in Brain communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Movement dysfunction after stroke is largely due to the inability of cortical motor neurons to activate spinal motor neurons via transmission of descending motor commands along the corticofugal projection from the primary motor cortex. Pathophysiological processes that ensue following injury have mostly resolved and white matter volume within the remodelled tract has mostly stabilized by the chronic stage many months to years after symptom onset. Where along the cranial course of the residual corticofugal projection white matter microstructure explains potential to activate muscles weakened by stroke at this stage is still not well understood. Here, diffusion spectrum imaging was used to reconstruct the descending corticofugal projection and quantify its microstructure in stroke survivors (
