Online functional connectivity analysis of large all-to-all networks in MNE Scan.
Article in Imaging neuroscience (Cambridge, Mass.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 analysis of electroencephalography (EEG)/magnetoencephalography (MEG) functional connectivity has become an important tool in neuroscience. Especially the high time resolution of EEG/MEG enables important insight into the functioning of the human brain. To date, functional connectivity is commonly estimated offline, that is, after the conclusion of the experiment. However, online computation of functional connectivity has the potential to enable unique experimental paradigms. For example, changes of functional connectivity due to learning processes could be tracked in real time and the experiment be adjusted based on these observations. Furthermore, the connectivity estimates can be used for neurofeedback applications or the instantaneous inspection of measurement results. In this study, we present the implementation and evaluation of online sensor and source space functional connectivity estimation in the open-source software MNE Scan. Online capable implementations of several functional connectivity metrics were established in the Connectivity library within MNE-CPP and made available as a plugin in MNE Scan. Online capability was achieved by enforcing multithreading and high efficiency for all computations, so that repeated computations were avoided wherever possible, which allows for a major speed-up in the case of overlapping intervals. We present comprehensive performance evaluations of these implementations proving the online capability for the computation of large all-to-all functional connectivity networks. As a proof of principle, we demonstrate the feasibility of online functional connectivity estimation in the evaluation of somatosensory evoked brain activity.
