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
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the added value of NeuroGam software analysis in the localization diagnosis of epileptogenic zone during interictal phase of seizures. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical data of 67 patients, clinically diagnosed as epilepsy, were analyzed retrospectively. Visual analysis and NeuroGam software analysis were used for independent analysis. The 2 methods were used to compare the efficacy indicator of the diagnosis of epileptogenic zone, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve evaluated the diagnostic efficacy. RESULTS Through the final clinical diagnostic comprehensive localization, among 67 epilepsy patients, the epileptogenic zone in 51 cases could be located distinctly, and those in 16 cases could not be located. Compared to the visual analysis, the NeuroGam software analysis was more sensitive in the location of epileptogenic zone (χ²=4.876, P=0.027). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of the NeuroGam software and visual analyses was 0.760 and 0.689, (0.613, 0.908) and (0.547, 0.832), respectively. However, the consistency of the 2 methods was poor (Kappa=0.367, P=0.001). Compared to visual analysis, the NeuroGam software analysis exerted more advantages in the localization diagnosis of the epileptogenic zone (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In the location diagnosis of brain perfusion, single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) epileptogenic zone was used in interictal phase of seizures, and NeuroGam software analysis exerted a distinct added value for visual analysis.
