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

Mental workload (MWL) classification using electroencephalogram (EEG) signals is crucial for cognitive neuroscience and is also a challenging research area in brain-computer interface (BCI). Since the EEG signals fluctuate a lot across sessions and individuals, there is a need for a robust classification model that generalizes well for real-world applications. In this work, we used the publicly available dataset "An EEG dataset for cross-session mental workload estimation: passive BCI competition of the Neuroergonomics Conference 2021", and the standard EEGNet model to classify the MWL into three classes (Low, Med, and High). To improve the performance of the model, a synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) was used by creating synthetic EEG samples, and key hyperparameters (F
