Frontal Disorders and Consciousness: A Review.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purpose of reviewThe frontal cortex plays a key role in many functions considered to be relevant for consciousness. Furthermore, altered consciousness appears to exist in those with disorders that disrupt or damage frontal areas and/or networks. This article reviews recent research discussing the impact of frontal disorders on consciousness. RECENT
findingsMany theories of consciousness have been developed over the last century to help explain the neural correlates of consciousness. Some theories argue that the frontal cortex is necessary for consciousness, while others argue that posterior cortical regions are critical for consciousness. The Memory Theory of Consciousness argues that consciousness requires modality-specific localization throughout the brain. We argue that frontal disorders do not abolish consciousness but they may disrupt conscious abilities such as sustained attention, working memory, problem-solving, complex thought, executive function, response inhibition, decision-making, and goal-oriented behavior. Understanding the role of the frontal cortex in consciousness has significant scientific, clinical, and societal implications.
