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

objectiveTo determine the optimal depth electrode montages for the assessment of effective connectivity based on single-pulse electrical stimulation (SPES). To determine the effect of SPES locations on the extent of resulting neuronal propagations.

methodsWe studied 14 epilepsy patients who underwent invasive monitoring with depth electrodes and measurement of cortico-cortical evoked potentials (CCEPs) and cortico-cortical spectral responses (CCSRs). We determined the effects of electrode montage and stimulus sites on the CCEP/CCSR amplitudes.

resultsBipolar and Laplacian montages effectively reduced the degree of SPES-related signal deflections at extra-cortical levels, including outside the brain, while maintaining those at the cortical level. SPES of structures more proximal to the deep white matter, compared to the cortical surface, elicited greater CCEPs and CCSRs.

conclusionsOn depth electrode recording, bipolar and Laplacian montages are suitable for measurement of near-field CCEPs and CCSRs. SPES of the white matter axons may induce neuronal propagations to extensive regions of the cerebral cortex. SIGNIFICANCE: This study helps to establish the practical guidelines on the diagnostic use of CCEPs/CCSRs.
