Cardiovascular Activity Predominantly Modulates Brain Dynamics in Non-REM Sleep Transitions.
Article in Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study explores the brain-heart axis and its directional control dynamics across various sleep stages using electroencephalography and electrocardiogram data from publicly available whole-night recordings of 50 healthy individuals. Utilizing a validated functional brain-heart interplay (BHI) mathematical model, we identified a decrease in central control over peripheral neural activity regulating heartbeat dynamics during non-REM sleep. In contrast, an increase in sympathovagal activity influencing cortical function was observed during deep sleep, particularly in Non-REM3, compared to light sleep and REM phases. These results indicate a dynamic shift in the functional balance of the brain-heart axis and related BHI throughout sleep stages, characterized by predominant central control during wakefulness and enhanced bodily neuro-cardiac-autonomic regulation during deep sleep.
