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
In this paper we present the TAVA, a novel dataset for advancing research in Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) by disentangling paralinguistic and linguistic information in affective speech signals. The dataset includes 352 audio recordings of emotionally expressive English speech, each paired with a corresponding transformed electroglottographic (tEGG) version-a signal designed to preserve affective cues while systematically suppressing phonetic content. In addition, we provide over 120,000 crowd-sourced ratings of valence, arousal, and dominance for both the original and transformed signals. These ratings support fine-grained comparisons of affect perception across modalities. Building on prior work showing that tEGG signals can effectively isolate vocal affect, this dataset offers a unique resource for evaluating sensitivity to vocal affect in clinical populations with language or communication difficulties, as well as in studies aimed at dissociating linguistic and affective processing in individuals without these impairments. By contributing a phoneme-reduced, affect-rich signal representation to the SER community, we aim to enable more robust modelling of vocal affect and broaden the applicability of SER systems to diverse user populations.
