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 high spatiotemporal resolution of optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) makes them an essential tool for functional brain imaging, enabling accurate recordings of neuronal activity. However, physiological signals such as eye blinks and cardiac activity overlap with neural magnetic signals in the frequency domain, resulting in contamination and creating challenges for the observation of brain activity and the study of neurological disorders. To address this problem, an automatic physiological artifact removal method based on OPM magnetic reference signals and a channel attention mechanism is proposed. The randomized dependence coefficient (RDC) is employed to evaluate the correlation between independent components and reference signals, enabling reliable recognition of artifact components and the construction of training and testing datasets. A channel attention mechanism is subsequently introduced, which fuses features from global average pooling (GAP) and global max pooling (GMP) layers through convolution to establish a data-driven automatic recognition model. The backbone network is further optimized to enhance performance. Experimental results demonstrate a strong correlation between the magnetic reference signals and artifact components, confirming the reliability of magnetic signals as artifact references for OPM-MEG. The proposed model achieves an artifact recognition accuracy of 98.52% and a macro-average score of 98.15%. After artifact removal, both the event-related field (ERF) responses and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are significantly improved. Leveraging the flexible and modular characteristics of OPM-MEG, this study introduces an artifact recognition framework that integrates magnetic reference signals with an attention mechanism. This approach enables highly accurate automatic recognition and removal of OPM-MEG artifacts, paving the way for real-time, automated data analysis in both scientific research and clinical applications.
