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

Reaction time (RT) tasks are used extensively to evaluate sensory-motor function for basic research and various clinical applications, so it is critical to identify methodological and environmental factors influencing RT. Further, changes in RT under different conditions may reveal novel aspects of sensory-motor processing. Previous studies have reported that RTs on Go/NoGo tasks can be modulated by changes in Go/NoGo stimulus ratio, potentially by influencing prestimulus preparatory activity and (or) poststimulus cognitive processing. To assess the underlying mechanisms, we measured RT in an S1-S2 version of the Go/NoGo task in which a warning stimulus (S1) preceded Go and NoGo stimuli (S2) delivered at two ratios (Go and NoGo frequencies), NoGo-Rare (25% NoGo/75% Go) and NoGo-Frequent (75% NoGo/25% Go). Simultaneous electroencephalographic recordings were acquired of the contingent negative variation (CNV) as a preparatory activity marker and both NoGoN2 and NoGoP3 as cognitive processing markers. Mean RT was shorter during the NoGo-Rare condition compared to the NoGo-Frequent condition, but there were no significant differences in CNV amplitudes between conditions. Alternatively, significant differences were observed in NoGoN2 amplitude, NoGoN2 latency, and NoGoP3 amplitude between conditions, suggesting that Go/NoGo stimulus ratio alters RT primarily by influencing poststimulus cognitive processing.
