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

It is now well-accepted that differing frequencies of neuro-oscillations support the selection, quantising, and pacing of information around different circuits in the brain. Another related function of neuro-oscillations, for which the frequency of oscillation is again critical, is to allow for integration of neural activity across differing spatial scales. In this short review, we discuss the degree to which human scalp-recorded EEG occurring in the theta-range (4-8 Hz) can be used to infer activation of mnemonic circuits involving the hippocamps and diencephalon (Papez loops), as well as in the neocortical areas the activity is directly recorded from. We also discuss the potential role of theta-range frequency modulation in the selection of specific mnemonic circuits. In light of the foregoing, we suggest that the frequency at which theta is occurring within and between cognitive tasks should be reported more thoroughly than it generally is. Finally, we suggest that assessing disruptions in frequency modulation of theta-range oscillations is a potentially valuable biomarker for disorders such as Alzheimer's disease.
