Cerebellar and subcortical contributions to working memory manipulation.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Working memory is critical for manipulating and temporarily storing information during cognitive tasks such as problem-solving. Most models focus primarily on cortical-cortical interactions, neglecting subcortical and cerebellar contributions. Given the extensive connectivity between the cerebellum, subcortex, and cortex, we hypothesize that they contribute distinct, yet complementary, functions during working memory manipulation. To test this, we used functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) to measure blood oxygen-level dependent (BOLD) activity while participants performed a mental rotation task. Our results revealed a distributed network spanning the cortex, subcortex, and cerebellum that differentiates rotated from non-rotated stimuli and correct from incorrect responses. Notably, delayed responses in premotor, subcortical, and cerebellar regions during incorrect trials, suggest that their precise recruitment is crucial for successful working memory manipulation. These findings expand current models of working memory manipulation, revealing the collaborative role of subcortical and cerebellar regions in coordinating higher cognitive functions.
