Tractography for Subcortical Resection of Gliomas Is Highly Accurate for Motor and Language Function: ioMRI-Based Elastic Fusion Disproves the Severity of Brain Shift.
Article in Cancers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
When using preoperative tractography intraoperatively, inaccuracies due to brain shift might occur. Intraoperative tractography is rarely performed. Elastic fusion (EF) is a tool developed to compensate for brain shift, gravity, and tissue resection based on intraoperative images. Our hypothesis was that preoperative tractography is accurate and adjustments of tractography by intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (ioMRI)-based EF (IBEF) compensate for brain shift. Between February 2018 and June 2019, 78 patients underwent eloquent (46 motor, 32 language) glioma resection in our department using intraoperative MRI. Mean distances between the resection cavity and tractography were analyzed and correlated with clinical outcomes. The mean ± standard deviation (range) distance after the application of IBEF was 5.0 ± 2.9 mm (0-10 mm) in patients without surgery-related motor deficits compared with 1.1 ± 1.6 mm (0-5 mm) in patients who showed new permanent surgery-related motor deficits postoperatively (
