Using connectome-based predictive models to reveal the systems standardized tests and clinical symptoms are reflecting.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
We depart from the feed-forward approach of brain-behavior modeling, which identifies the functional brain connectivity networks associated with performance on external tests, and instead introduce a feedback approach that reveals the brain systems those external tests reflect. In fMRI data from n = 302 demographically and clinically diverse participants, we a priori define connectivity networks for six cognitive constructs and employ kernel ridge regression to quantify each network's contribution to test performance. This approach provides a ranking of test scores according to the predictive power of each cognitive network, revealing which tests probe which brain networks. It further identifies combinations of measures that optimally probe predefined brain systems and evaluates how specific subtests influence composite scores, revealing when subset inclusion reinforces or weakens specific brain circuit and composite score relationships. This work opens an avenue of research by providing a framework for the development of test instruments guided by quantitative brain metrics.
