Abnormal intrinsic brain functional network dynamics in patients with postherpetic neuralgia.
Article in Frontiers in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: This study aimed to investigate the temporal characteristics of the functional connection state patterns and the topological structure of dynamic brain functional networks of patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Methods: We recruited 23 PHN patients, 45 herpes zoster (HZ) patients and 27 matched healthy controls (HC) to participate in resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. We applied the sliding time window analysis method and K-means clustering analysis to identify dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) variability patterns in three groups. The graph-theoretical approach was used to investigate the topological structure of brain functional networks. Results: All participants showed three types of dynamic functional connection states (state I: strongly connected, state II: sparsely connected, state III: intermediate pattern). Compared to HC, PHN patients exhibited a decreased proportion in state I ( Conclusion: Dynamic functional connection states and the variance of topological organization may offer new insights into intrinsic functional activities in PHN brain networks.
