1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveLocalization of epileptic seizures, usually characterized by abnormal hypersynchronous wave patterns from the cortex, remains elusive. We present a novel, robust method for automatic localization of seizures on the scalp from clinical electroencephalogram (EEG) data.

methodsSeizure patient EEG data was decomposed via the Hilbert Transform and processed through the following methodology: sorting the analytic amplitude (AA) in the time instance, locating the maximum amplitude within the vector of channels, cross-correlating amplitude values in the time index with the channel vector. The channel with highest AA value in time was located.

resultsOur approach provides an automated way to isolate the epi-genesis of seizure events with 93.3% precision and 100% sensitivity. The method differentiates seizure-related neural activity from other common EEG noise artifacts (e.g., blinks, myogenic noise).

conclusionsWe evaluated performance characteristics of our source location methodology utilizing both phase and energy of EEG signals from patients who exhibited seizure events. Feasibility of the new algorithm is demonstrated and confirmed. SIGNIFICANCE: The proposed method contributes to high-performance scalp localization for seizure events that is more straightforward and less computationally intensive than other methods (e.g., inverse source modeling). Ultimately, it may aid clinicians in providing improved patient diagnosis.
