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

Schizophrenia involves abnormal fronto-occipital interactions linked to hallucinations and cognitive impairments, but the neural mechanisms remain unclear. This work aims to provide an overview of the relationship between fronto-occipital dysfunction and symptoms using simultaneous EEG-fMRI data in schizophrenia. We measured the brain's functional separation and quantified bidirectional information transfer changes between the frontal and occipital regions. A pronounced elevation in correlation within the frontal lobe, accompanied by a marked reduction in the occipital lobe, was observed between gradient eccentricities and theta-power of forward waves. Moreover, the relationship between forward waves and gradient eccentricities in the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex may be shaped by positive symptoms, while the influence of negative symptoms appears to modulate the relationship between backward waves and gradient eccentricities in the insula.
