Cerebellar transcranial static magnetic field stimulation reduces muscle activity during maximum contraction.
Trial report in BMC research notes, 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
backgroundTranscranial static magnetic field stimulation (tSMS) is a noninvasive technique that modulates neuronal excitability without inducing an electrical current. Although triple-magnet tSMS has been shown to suppress cortical excitability in the motor cortex, its effects on cerebellar circuits and motor output remain unclear.
objectiveWe examined whether cerebellar triple-magnet tSMS modulates voluntary muscle activation, cortical excitability, cerebellar output in healthy adults.
methodsIn this single-blind, randomized, sham-controlled study, 44 healthy participants received real- or sham-tSMS over the right cerebellum. Motor output was assessed by electromyography (EMG) of the right first dorsal interosseous muscle during maximum voluntary contraction (MVC). The resting motor threshold (rMT) and cerebellar brain inhibition (CBI) were measured using transcranial magnetic stimulation.
resultsEMG activity during MVC decreased in both groups, with a greater reduction in the real-tSMS group (p = 0.008, r = 0.402). No significant effect of tSMS was observed on the rMT or CBI.
conclusionCerebellar triple-magnet tSMS reduced EMG activity during MVC, suggesting modulation of voluntary motor control. The absence of changes in rMT and CBI suggests that tSMS may act via mechanisms not captured by conventional physiological indices.
