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

To ensure goal-directed behavior in daily life, the use of inhibitory control is of great importance. The aim of this study is to shed light on the underlying neuronal mechanisms of inhibitory control and the relevance of cytoarchitectonic integrity in it. We combine sophisticated EEG analysis techniques assessing directed communication between brain structures with measurements of neurofilaments as an index of cytoarchitectonic integrity. We show that an extensive theta band activity related neural network with fronto-temporal, parietal, and occipital brain regions is active during response inhibition. Importantly, cytoarchitectonic integrity as measured using neurofilaments modulates nonlinear directional connectivity, particularly when complex reconfiguration of perceptual and action mapping is required. The study thus shows an inter-relation between different levels of biological functioning-the level of cytoarchitectonic integrity and neurophysiological directed communication-for inhibitory control and emphasizes the role of nonlinear brain connectivity in cognitive control.
