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

Purpose: We tested whether short-term monocular deprivation (STMD) of the amblyopic eye enhances binocular intermodulation steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs), reflecting reduced suppression from the fellow eye. Methods: Fifteen anisometropic amblyopes (15.6 ± 5.8 years) underwent 2-h STMD of their fellow eye on the first day, followed by a similar session on their amblyopic eye on the second day. We recorded SSVEPs from 21 occipital electrodes pre/post STMD during binocular rivalry (6/7.5 Hz flicker). Results: Similar to the previous study, the monocular SSVEP amplitude of the deprived eye increased after STMD, whereas that of the non-deprived eye remained unchanged. Critically, STMD of the amblyopic eye significantly increased f Conclusion: STMD of the amblyopic eye, but not the fellow eye, significantly enhanced binocular SSVEP intermodulation. Baseline f1+f2 amplitude predicted the magnitude of plasticity, suggesting its potential as an electrophysiological biomarker for reverse deprivation therapy.
