Learning from missteps: Potential of transcranial electrical stimulation in neuropsychological rehabilitation.
Review in Journal of neuropsychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) holds promise for neuropsychological rehabilitation by leveraging the brain's inherent plasticity to enhance cognitive and motor functions. However, early results have been variable due to oversimplified approaches. This manuscript explores the potential and complexities of tES, particularly focusing on a protocol defined transcranial direct current stimulation as a reference model for all tES protocols, emphasising the need for precision in tailoring stimulation parameters to individual characteristics. By integrating intrinsic (i.e. the neuro-physiological system state) and extrinsic factors (i.e. experimental set up), highlighting the critical role of state-dependent effects and the synergy with cognitive tasks, we aim to refine tES protocols. This approach not only addresses the complexity of the brain system (as defined by its current state) but also highlights the importance of collaborative research and data sharing to understand the underlying mechanisms of tES-induced changes and optimising therapeutic efficacy. Emphasising the integration of tES with targeted tasks and clearer hypotheses, this work underscores the potential for more effective neurorehabilitation strategies.
