Rethinking the extrastriate body area: from body perception to action priors.
Review in Cerebral cortex (New York, N.Y. : 1991), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Perception of bodies underpins social cognition, action, and self-representation, and is often attributed to the extrastriate body area (EBA). Building on recent data, we argue that the function of the EBA goes beyond body perception. We propose that the EBA operates within a predictive, distributed architecture, encoding body-related priors that have been shaped by evolution and experience, and that bias ongoing behavior. Evidence from multivariate analyses and resting-state dynamics suggests that body representations are flexible, shared across categories, and not confined to a single locus. Accordingly, the EBA is better understood as a dynamic node supporting context-dependent behavior rather than a specialized module.
