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

The functional and cognitive effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are poorly understood, as even mild injuries (concussion) can lead to long-lasting, untreatable symptoms. Simplified brain dynamics models may help researchers better understand the relationship between brain injury patterns and functional outcomes. Properly developed, these computational models provide an approach to investigate the effects of both computational and in vivo injury on simulated dynamics and cognitive function, respectively, for model organisms. In this study, we apply the Kuramoto model and an existing mesoscale mouse brain structural network to develop a simplified computational model of mouse brain dynamics. We explore how to optimize our initial model to predict existing mouse brain functional connectivity collected from mice under various anesthetic protocols. Finally, to determine how strongly the changes in our optimized models' dynamics can predict the extent of a brain injury, we investigate how our simulations respond to varying levels of structural network damage. Results predict a mixture of hypo- and hyperconnectivity after experimental TBI, similar to results in TBI survivors, and also suggest a compensatory remodeling of connections that may have an impact on functional outcomes after TBI.
