Transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) in human motor Optimization: Mechanisms, safety, and emerging applications.
Review in Biochemistry and biophysics reports, 2025. 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
Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) has emerged as a rapidly advancing field, offering promising therapeutic interventions for a range of neurological disorders while effectively bridging the gap between laboratory research and clinical applications. Among NIBS technologies, transcranial electrical stimulation (TES) stands out as a notable example, utilizing electrodes of varying sizes to deliver low-intensity electrical currents to specific regions of the cerebral cortex. This technique facilitates the modulation of neuronal excitability, regulation of brainwave activity, promotion of neural remodeling and repair, enhancement of cerebral blood flow, and improvement of brain-muscle connectivity. Despite its potential, current research on the effects of TES on motor function across diverse populations, particularly from a central nervous system perspective, remains limited. This review seeks to establish a theoretical framework for the future advancement of TES technology in sports science, elucidate the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying various TES modalities, and synthesize the most recent experimental findings from the past two decades regarding its impact on physical fitness, motor skill acquisition, and recovery in different populations.
