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

Background: Patients with auditory verbal hallucination (AVH) may experience significant occupational and social functional disabilities, which bring a heavy burden to their families and society. Although neuroimaging studies have explored the brain regions associated with AVH and proposed models to explain AVH, the potential pathological mechanisms are not clear. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a portable and suitable measurement, particularly in exploring brain activation during related tasks. Hence, our researchers aimed to explore the differences in the cerebral hemodynamic function between patients with schizophrenia with AVH (SZ-AVHs) and patients with schizophrenia without AVH (SZ-nAVHs) through fNIRS to examine neural abnormalities associated more specifically with AVH. Methods: A 52-channel functional near-infrared spectroscopy system was used to monitor hemodynamic changes in SZ-AVHs ( Results: Our results showed that the integral values of the SZ-AVHs were significantly higher than those of the SZ-nAVHs in the left STC [ Discussion: Our findings indicate that SZ-AVHs exhibited lower activation in the left STC and Slower response speed in the right vlPFC than SZ-nAVHs.
