Moving rhythmically can facilitate naturalistic speech perception in a noisy environment.
Article in Proceedings. Biological sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The motor system is known to process temporal information, and moving rhythmically while listening to a melody can improve auditory processing. In three interrelated behavioural experiments, we demonstrate that this effect translates to speech processing. Motor priming improves the efficiency of subsequent naturalistic speech-in-noise processing under specific conditions. (i) Moving rhythmically at the lexical rate (~1.8 Hz) significantly improves subsequent speech processing compared to moving at other rates, such as the phrasal or syllabic rates. (ii) The impact of such rhythmic motor priming is not influenced by whether it is self-generated or triggered by an auditory beat. (iii) Overt lexical vocalization, regardless of its semantic content, also enhances the efficiency of subsequent speech processing. These findings provide evidence for the functional role of the motor system in processing the temporal dynamics of naturalistic speech.
