Use of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation to explore inhibitory and facilitatory circuits in muscles of the human lower limb.
Article in Experimental physiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The aim of this study was to explore the primary afferent depolarization mechanism, to determine whether the soleus transspinal evoked potential (TEP), elicited through transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation over the L1-L2 level, is modulated by presynaptic inhibition and heteronymous facilitation, similar to the Hoffmann (H) reflex, elicited by posterior tibial nerve stimulation. Twenty subjects participated in two experiments. Experiment 1 assessed D
