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

Low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) is a promising neuromodulation modality, but challenges related to high response variability and the poorly understood parameter space undermine progress in clinical applications. To facilitate the development of therapeutic LIFU protocols, we developed an approach for Bayesian-enhanced adaptive control of ultrasound neuromodulation (BEACUN). BEACUN enables efficient, data-driven parameter mapping using a limited number of stimulation-response evaluations. We used functional ultrasound imaging (fUSI) to measure the neural responses to LIFU stimulation in real time, and we carried out
