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

Research suggests that dreams play a role in the regulation of emotional processing and memory consolidation; electroencephalography (EEG) is useful for studying them, but manual annotation is time-consuming and prone to bias. This study was aimed at developing an EEG-based machine learning (ML) model to automatically identify dream and dreamless states in sleep. We extracted features from EEG data using common spatial patterns (CSPs) and the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and used them to classify EEG signals into dream and dreamless states using ML models. To determine the most informative channels for classification, we used the permutation-based channel selection method and the nondominated sorting genetic algorithm II (NSGA-II). We evaluated our proposal using a public dataset that is part of the DREAM project, which was collected from 58 EEG channels during rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM sleep, while 28 subjects reported dream or dreamless experiences. We achieved accuracies greater than 0.85 to distinguish dream and dreamless states using CSP-based feature extraction combined with
