Efficacy of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Developmental Dyslexia: a scoping review.
Article in CoDAS, 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
purposeThis study aims to improve the existing knowledge about the application of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in rehabilitating Developmental Dyslexia, both alone and in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches. RESEARCH STRATEGIES: The research was carried on the PubMed, Elsevier, LILACS and ERIC - Institute of Education Science. SELECTION CRITERIA: Peer-reviewed journal articles were included if published in English, Portuguese, and Spanish and be broken down from the research question devised by the PICO acronym. DATA ANALYSIS: Specific data collected according to delineation, summarized by descriptive analysis.
resultsEleven articles were analyzed. Five of them associated tDCS with cognitive-linguistic or reading stimulation therapy. Assembly and application frequency parameters varied. The results indicated a positive effect on reading skills after the intervention in all of them.
conclusionThe selected studies showed an improvement in reading speed and accuracy after active transcranial direct current stimulation, whether or not it combined with other cognitive-linguistic and reading stimulation. In some cases, the positive effects persisted up to six months after the intervention, making this a tool that can be used in the treatment of individuals with dyslexia.
