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

aimsNeurological diseases like Alzheimer's disease (AD) with cognitive deficits show impaired theta, gamma, and ripple bands. Restoring these oscillations may be crucial for rescuing cognitive functions. Low-intensity transcranial ultrasound stimulation (TUS), a noninvasive neuromodulation method, offers high spatial resolution and deep penetration. However, it remains unclear how 40 Hz and 200 Hz TUS may improve memory in AD by regulating hippocampal oscillations.

methodsWe applied 40 Hz and 200 Hz TUS to the CA1 region of AD mice, performing memory assessments and CA1 electrophysiology recordings simultaneously.

resultsOur results showed that both 40 Hz and 200 Hz TUS significantly improved memory performance in AD mice by targeting the dorsal hippocampus and increasing power in corresponding frequency bands. Specifically, 40 Hz TUS enhanced gamma and ripple bands, while 200 Hz TUS strongly affected both. This enhancement increased during stimulation and persisted 5 days poststimulation. Improved coupling between theta and gamma oscillations indicated better hippocampal coordination with other brain regions. Additionally, 40 Hz TUS raised sharp wave ripple (SPW-Rs) incidence, and 200 Hz TUS increased both SPW-R incidence and duration, contributing to memory improvement. Behavioral performance significantly improved with TUS at both frequencies.

conclusionUltrasound-induced synchronized neural activities at 40 Hz and 200 Hz entrained corresponding oscillations and improved memory in Alzheimer's disease.
