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

Innovations in electrophysiological recordings and computational analytic techniques enable high-resolution analysis of neural traveling waves. Here, we present a protocol for the detection and analysis of traveling waves from multi-day microelectrode array human electrophysiological recordings through a multi-linear regression statistical approach using point estimator data. We describe steps for traveling wave detection, feature characterization, and propagation pattern analysis. This protocol may improve our understanding of the coordination of neurons during non-oscillatory neural dynamics. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Smith et al.
