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

The concurrent effects of volitional breathing on motor-related brain regions have been documented in several studies, but it remains uncertain whether its after-effects influence neural processes involved in motor preparation. This study investigated whether a brief slow-paced breathing intervention alters the dynamics of the Bereitschaftspotential (BP) preceding voluntary movement. Thirty healthy participants were randomly assigned to a slow-paced breathing (SB) group (n = 15), who performed 5 min of 0.1-Hz breathing, or to a resting breathing (RB) group (n = 15). Before and after the intervention, participants executed self-paced isometric right index finger abductions while electroencephalography, electromyography, force output, end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO
