Simulation of electrocortical waves.
Article in Biological cybernetics, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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 report simulations of the electrocorticogram of the cat and human, based on estimates of fibre range, fibre density, axonal and dendritic delays, and cortical synaptic density. The long-range cortical connections of real cortex were simplified to couplings of symmetric density, decreasing in density with range, on a closed (toroidal) surface. Non-specific cortical activation was modelled as a diffuse global input and specific sensory input as a localised white noise input. Spectral properties of output included peak densities at the frequencies of the major cerebral rhythms, a '1/f' spectral envelope and 'shift to the right' with increasing total power as non-specific activation increased. Steady-state travelling waves with a velocity of 5-7 m/s (human) and < 1 m/s (cat) were produced. Frequency/wavenumber analysis revealed an additional class of activity with wavenumbers independent of temporal frequency. All these findings accord qualitatively and quantitatively with existing physiological results. Global resonant modes were not prominent, but the simulations obey a restricted case of the analytical results of Nunez (1994). Wave/pulse relations resemble the findings of Freeman (1975).
