Utility of 3D multimodality imaging in the implantation of intracranial electrodes in epilepsy.
Article in Epilepsia, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectiveWe present a single-center prospective study, validating the use of 3D multimodality imaging (3 DMMI) in patients undergoing intracranial electroencephalography (IC-EEG).
methodsIC-EEG implantation preparation entails first designing of the overall strategy of implantation (strategy) and second the precise details of implantation (planning). For each case, the multidisciplinary team made decisions on strategy and planning before the disclosure of multimodal brain imaging models. Any changes to decisions, following disclosure of the multimodal models, were recorded.
resultsDisclosure of 3 DMMI led to a change in strategy in 15 (34%) of 44 individuals. The changes included addition and subtraction of electrodes, addition of grids, and going directly to resection. For the detailed surgical planning, 3 DMMI led to a change in 35 (81%) of 43 individuals. Twenty-five (100%) of 25 patients undergoing stereo-EEG (SEEG) underwent a change in electrode placement, with 158 (75%) of 212 electrode trajectories being altered. SIGNIFICANCE: The use of 3 DMMI makes substantial changes in clinical decision making.
