Neuroimaging Correlates of Periodic Discharges.
Review in Journal of clinical neurophysiology : official publication of the American Electroencephalographic Society, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
Despite being first described over 50 years ago, periodic discharges continue to generate controversy as to whether they are always, sometimes, or never "ictal." Investigators and clinicians have proposed adjunctive markers to help clarify this distinction-in particular measures of perfusion and metabolism. Here, we review the growing number of neuroimaging studies using Fluorodeoxyglucose-PET, MRI diffusion, Magnetic resonance perfusion, Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography, and Magnetoencepgalography to gain further insight into the physiology and clinical significance of periodic discharges. To date, however, no definitive consensus exists regarding the features of periodic discharges that warrant treatment intensification. However, an emerging consilience among neuroimaging modalities suggests that periodic discharges can induce a hyperexcitatory state with associated hypermetabolism and hyperperfusion, which may result in local metabolic failure.
