Effects of two types of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on brain network in Parkinson's disease.
Article in NPJ Parkinson's disease, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07176091 (Clinical Efficacy of Intermittent Theta Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation With Different Modes on Parkinson's Disease), which is not on this map.

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.
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.

Abstract
Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) may have higher efficiency and stronger excitatory effects compared to conventional high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF-rTMS). To evaluate the therapeutic effects of the two modalities, we compared the differences in spatiotemporal variability of electroencephalography (EEG) microstate-based brain networks between 51 PD patients and 21 healthy controls. The 51 PD patients were randomly assigned to either iTBS or 10Hz-rTMS groups to compare pre- and post-treatment clinical assessment results and spatiotemporal variability changes. Baseline measurements showed significant differences in spatiotemporal variability between PD patients and healthy controls, with certain brain regions demonstrating significant correlations between spatiotemporal variability and clinical assessment results. Both treatment groups exhibited significant improvements in all clinical outcomes compared to baseline. The iTBS group showed post-treatment changes involving more brain regions in spatiotemporal variability. This study demonstrates that compared to 10Hz-rTMS, iTBS can reduce treatment time while providing superior improvement in functional brain connectivity for PD patients.
