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

Applying transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) at the gamma range to the frontal and parietal regions can improve cognitive dysfunctions. This study aimed to explore the neural changes following tACS. Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings were obtained from a cohort of 34 participants with various cognitive impairments before and after 11 sessions of 40 Hz tACS treatment. Alternating currents at 2.0 mA were administered to the electrode positions F3 and P3 for 25 min of each session, following the 10-20 EEG convention. Using eLORETA, scalp-recorded signals were reconstructed into cortical current source density (CSD). We then assessed the differences in power and connectivity strength across multiple spectra. We observed a consistent trend of decreased CSD at the stimulating sites across different spectra, most prominent at beta and gamma bands (
