Electroencephalography in epilepsy: look for what could be beyond the visual inspection.
Review in Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Since its starting point in 1929, human scalp electroencephalography (EEG) has been routinely interpreted by visual inspection of waveforms using the assumption that the activity at a given electrode is a representation of the activity of the cerebral cortex under it, but such a method has some limitations. In this review, we will discuss three advanced methods to obtain valuable information from scalp EEG in epilepsy using innovative technologies. Authors who had previous publications in the field provided a narrative review. Spike voltage topography of interictal spikes is a potential way to improve non-invasive EEG localization in focal epilepsies. Electrical source imaging is also a complementary technique in localization of the epileptogenic zone in patients who are candidates for epilepsy surgery. Quantitative EEG simplifies the large amount of information in continuous EEG by providing a static graphical display. Scalp electroencephalography has the potential to offer more spatial and temporal information than the traditional way of visual inspection alone in patients with epilepsy. Fortunately, with the help of modern digital EEG equipment and computer-assisted analysis, this information is more accessible.
