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

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) is a pivotal tool for mapping the functional organization of the brain and its relation to individual differences in behaviour. One challenge for the field is that rs-fMRI signals are contaminated by multiple sources of noise that can contaminate these rs-fMRI signals, affecting the reliability and validity of any derivative phenotypes and attenuating their correlations with behaviour. Here, we investigate the efficacy of different noise mitigation pipelines, including white matter and cerebrospinal fluid regression, independent component analysis (ICA)-based artefact removal, volume censoring, global signal regression (GSR), and diffuse cluster estimation and regression (DiCER), in simultaneously achieving two objectives: mitigating motion-related artefacts and augmenting brain-behaviour associations. Our analysis, which employed three distinct quality control metrics to evaluate motion influence and a kernel ridge regression for behavioural predictions of 81 different behavioural variables across two independent datasets, revealed that no single pipeline universally excels at achieving both objectives consistently across different cohorts. Pipelines combining ICA-FIX and GSR demonstrate a reasonable trade-off between motion reduction and behavioural prediction performance, but inter-pipeline variations in predictive performance are modest.
