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 study of structural brain networks (SBNs) offers critical insights into brain-cognition relationships. However, a comprehensive comparison of these methods in terms of their topological properties, cognitive relevance, and sensitivity to connection density remains lacking. This study compares two types of individual-level SBNs-morphometric similarity networks (MSNs) and morphometric inverse divergence (MIND) networks-by analyzing their associations with cognitive performance using sMRI data from 29 male children. Group- and individual-level analyses were conducted to evaluate differences in hemispheric connectivity, topological features, and their correlations with cognitive performance across different connection densities. In our analyses, a connection density of [Formula: see text] appeared optimal for stabilizing network properties and maximizing cognitive correlations in both MSN and MIND. Moreover, advanced network segregation and integration metrics (such as local efficiency and node versatility, along with their global summaries) demonstrated greater sensitivity to cognitive performance. However, MSNs appeared to provide a more reliable framework, demonstrating more stable associations across connection densities in topological and hemispheric dimensions. Specifically, higher cognitive performance may be linked to stronger left intra-hemispheric connectivity, weaker inter-hemispheric connectivity, and more modular network organization-consistent with established theories of hemispheric specialization and efficient modularity. In contrast, MIND networks exhibit reduced effectiveness and stability across metrics and densities in our data. These preliminary insights enhance our understanding of brain-cognition relationships and provide practical guidelines for parameter selection and metric identification in network-based cognitive analyses.
