Lateralized Periodic Discharges are Predictive of Seizures in Patients with Intracerebral Hemorrhage.
Article in Annals of Indian Academy of Neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
backgroundPatients with intracerebral hemorrhages (ICHs) have higher incidence of seizures. Previous studies have suggested that location and size of hemorrhage may increase epileptogenicity. We aim to evaluate seizure development risk factors from clinical examination, imaging, and continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) in critically ill patients with ICH.
methodsWe reviewed 57 consecutive patients with ICH admitted to a neurocritical intensive care unit over a 24-month period who were monitored on cEEG. Their demographic and examination data, ICH score, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), location of bleed, cEEG patterns, and discharge status were analyzed.
resultsSixteen (28%) patients from our study cohort had seizures at a mean duration of 7.46 h from cEEG hookup. Fifteen (93%) of those patients had only electrographic seizures. The finding of lateralized periodic discharges (LPDs) was significantly (
conclusionWe found that LPDs were predictive of seizures in ICH patients. cEEG for longer than 24 h is preferred for detection of seizures as they occurred at a mean later than 7 h and most were without clinical signs.
