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

In the past 15 years, the increased availability and use of continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) in critically ill patients has substantially changed our understanding of the injured brain. We have become increasingly aware that electrographic seizures in this population may have only subtle or no clinical signs and that cEEG greatly increases the likelihood of detecting these seizures. This review highlights the rationale behind using cEEG rather than routine EEG for detection of nonconvulsive seizures and nonconvulsive status epilepticus in critically ill patients and defines which patients are at greatest risk. It also describes other applications of cEEG in the intensive care unit and how it may play an important role in monitoring brain function.
