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

Face perception is considered to be a canonical example of configurational visual processing. However, not all facial information is equally important when reading facial expressions. The eyes and mouth seem to be crucial, but they seem to have different roles and significance. By varying the shape of the mouth, eyes, and other factors, we conducted two experiments: first, we examined eye movements depending on different facial configurations and different types of instructions (neutral and emotionally valenced); second, we used the same types of stimuli in a rating task. Our results indicate that the eyes provide a primary impact (when eye fixations are measured), which can be explained by the evolutionary need to establish gaze contact, but once facial expressions are observed, the mouth seems to be more significant.
