Brain-computer interface: an update for the clinicians.
Review in Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 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
This narrative review critically examines the fundamental principles and clinical applications of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) in neuroscience and mental health. We searched PubMed, Scopus, and PEDro databases using pre-defined keywords, with inclusion restricted to clinical studies. The manuscript provides an evidence-based assessment of current indications, technological limitations, and emerging solutions, offering insights into both the opportunities and challenges for clinical integration. Clinical decision-making pathways are outlined to guide the adoption of BCI technologies in patient care. This article aims to increase awareness among clinicians and to equip them with the essential knowledge required as BCI systems advance toward mainstream clinical use.
