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

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate neurons in the brain and has been widely applied in the field of clinical neuromodulation. However, traditional TMS has limitations in terms of focality and stimulation depth, making it unable to achieve precise modulation of deep brain regions. As the stimulation depth increases, the focal area expands, potentially stimulating nontarget regions and causing negative side effects. Moreover, strongly induced electric fields can lead to adverse effects such as seizures. Temporal interference transcranial magnetic stimulation (TI-TMS) is a novel noninvasive neuromodulation technique that has considerable potential for reducing the focal area and increasing the stimulation depth. To study the mechanisms and effects of TI-TMS, this research first established a TI-TMS simulation platform based on a five-layer spherical model. This paper designed a double curved-elliptical coil structure, increasing the stimulation depth of the TI-TMS to 5.02 cm while reducing the focal area to 18.61 cm
