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

Objective: To investigate regional associations between peak alpha frequency (PAF) and poststroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) and evaluate PAF as an objective biomarker for cognitive assessment in PSCI. Methods: A cross-sectional study compared 103 participants [PSCI, poststroke non-impaired (PSN), and healthy controls]. Cognitive function was assessed using MoCA scores. PAF characteristics were analyzed across brain regions via EEG, with logistic regression and Random Forest identifying key predictors. We aimed to evaluate whether PAF can be an effective indicator of cognitive status in PSCI. Results: The Kruskal-Wallis test with Conclusion: Peak alpha frequency serves as a robust electrophysiological biomarker for PSCI. Multi-region PAF analysis enhances diagnostic precision for poststroke cognitive decline.
