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

Objectives: Prolonged disorders of consciousness (pDOC) is a common disease in neurology. This study aimed to explore the microstate (MS) characteristics of pDOC patients based on resting-state Electroencephalography (EEG) and explore the changes in brain function in pDOC patients. Methods: Patients were divided into healthy group and pDOC group according to the presence of consciousness. The T1 weighted 3D magnetization pre-gradient echo sequence (3d-t1-mprage) and resting state video EEG data were collected. First, the microstate clustering analysis was carried out. The global field power (GFP) was used to calculate microstate indicators (Duration, Occurrence, and Coverage), and then the statistical analysis between groups was carried out. Finally, the original resting state EEG data were reconstructed according to the clustered microstate GFP peak, and the connectivity of the brain in the four microstates was calculated, respectively. Results: The topographic map of MS B in the DOC goup (DG) is different from that in the healthy goup (HG). The Coverage value of MS B ( Conclusion: The microstate topographic maps of pDOC and CG are not identical. At the same time, the brain connectivity of pDOC patients in the four MS decreased significantly compared to the HG.
