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

purposeVirtual reality (VR) offers immersive environments for studying psychomotor performance, but the reliability of dry-electrode electroencephalography (EEG) in assessing brain activity during dynamic VR exergames (VRex) remains unclear. The present study investigated the feasibility and reliability of dry-electrode EEG frequency band, with primary focus on alpha band activity.

methodsTen amateur combat sports male participants (37 ± 11 years) volunteered for this study. The feasibility of dry-electrode EEG recording during motion and test-retest (24 h) reliability, was investigated. EEG measurements were obtained pre, post, and throughout a standardized boxing focus ball VRex session, comprising three 3-min rounds interspersed with 1-min rest intervals. EEG data were analyzed globally and at each electrode site, calculating average power spectral density values.

findingsICCs data indicated poor-to-excellent (0.208-0.858) reliability across all measurements within the 4- to 30-Hz frequency range. Poor-to-good reliability (0.393-0.636) was found across the task-active VRex intervals. Electrode sites ranged in reliability from poor (electrode P3; 0.262) to excellent (electrode P4; 0.728), with higher reliability found in the alpha band across electrode sites compared to average spectral band values.

conclusionThe present study demonstrates the feasibility, although variable reliability, in neuronal detection during a dynamic VR task, using novel dry-electrode EEG technology.
