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

Longitudinal measurements of brain structure and function are critical for understanding how humans change over time. Traditional longitudinal approaches sample sparsely across large windows of time to estimate coarse, long-term brain changes. This review showcases insights from dense longitudinal neuroimaging (DLN), an emerging approach that samples densely across relatively short windows of time to precisely estimate individual trajectories of brain change. DLN measures multiple samples from individuals throughout critical periods of rapid change. It allows precise estimates of nonlinear trajectories to advance a mechanistic understanding of brain change. Novel findings from this approach are improving our understanding of human cognition, such as the role of the motor system in visual development and learning.
