Evaluation of memory in persons with mesial temporal lobe sclerosis: A combined fMRI and VBM study.
Article in Journal of biosciences, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Persons with drug refractory TLE have the option of being managed by surgery. They may develop memory impairment with specific etiology of mesial temporal sclerosis and anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR). The study evaluated the semantic verbal memory outcomes in pre- and post-surgery temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) patients using functional MRI and voxel morphometric methods. Twenty consecutive persons with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) and 20 healthy controls were recruited after obtaining the institute ethics approval. The fMRI scans were performed on a 1.5 T MR Scanner using standardized semantic verbal memory tasks using a native Hindi paradigm, before and after an anterior temporal lobectomy (in cases). A task-based functional connectivity (FC) was estimated using a conn toolbox. Data analysis was carried out using the statistical parametric imaging (SPM12) and CAT12 toolbox. Post-surgery TLE group showed increased robust FC in the right middle and posterior temporal regions as compared to pre-surgery session. A significant reduction in grey matter volume was observed in the left temporal lobe post-operatively as compared to presurgery and healthy control groups. In the post-surgery TLE group, neuropsychological scores were reduced in specific PGI domains such as visuospatial, working memory, and executive functioning. Our results may help in understanding of memory reorganization in TLE post-operatively.
