Relationship between PET metabolism and SEEG epileptogenicity in focal lesional epilepsy.
Article in European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 31 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
purposeThis study aims to evaluate the performance of
methodsThirty-eight patients with MCD were explored with
resultsWe found (1) a gradient of PET hypometabolism from non-involved to propagation, then to epileptogenic and lesional zones (p < 0.001); (2) good performance of PET in defining the EZ (AUC of ROC curve = 0.82); (3) poorer post-surgical prognosis associated with PET hypometabolism extension beyond SEEG sampling (p = 0.024).
