Implicit structural priming as a treatment component for aphasia: Specifying essential learning conditions.
Article in Cognitive neuropsychology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
This study applies implicit structural priming as a novel treatment for sentence production in persons with aphasia (PWA), investigating the learning mechanism(s) that drive robust and enduring recovery. Sixteen PWA and 16 controls completed baseline, three training sessions, and 1-day and 1-week post-testing. Each participant received both alternating and single structure prime training conditions to test error-based versus repeated activation-based learning. Both groups showed significantly improved production and maintenance of trained and untrained target sentences in both training conditions. While controls showed greater gains following alternating prime structure training, single prime structure training resulted in greater improvements for PWA. These results suggest that structural priming is an effective training for aphasia. Additionally, to the extent that the different priming conditions reflected different mechanisms underlying the learning and access of impaired structure, increased base-level activation of target syntactic structure supports learning of grammatical encoding in aphasia more effectively than processing prime sentences with competing syntactic structures.
