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

Over the last decade, several methods for analysis of epileptiform signals in electroencephalography (EEG) have been proposed. These methods mainly use EEG signal features in either the time or the frequency domain to separate regular, interictal, and ictal brain activity. The aim of this work was to evaluate the feasibility of using functional connectivity (FC) based feature extraction methods for the analysis of epileptiform discharges in EEG signals. These signals were obtained from EEG-fMRI sessions of 10 patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) with unilateral hippocampal atrophy. The connectivity functions investigated were motif synchronization, imaginary coherence, and magnitude squared coherence in the alpha, beta, and gamma bands of the EEG. EEG signals were sectioned into 1-s epochs and classified according to (using neurologist markers): activity
