Automated Identification of Surgical Candidates and Estimation of Postoperative Seizure Freedom in Children - A Focused Review.
Review in Seminars in pediatric neurology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Surgery is an effective but underused treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy in children. Algorithms to identify surgical candidates and estimate the likelihood of postoperative clinical improvement may be valuable to improve access to epilepsy surgery. We provide a focused review of these approaches. For adults with epilepsy, tools to identify surgical candidates and predict seizure and cognitive outcomes (Ie, Cases for Epilepsy (toolsforepilepsy.com) and Epilepsy Surgery Grading Scale) have been validated and are in use. Analogous tools for children need development. A promising approach is to apply statistical learning tools to clinical datasets, such as electroencephalogram tracings, imaging studies, and the text of clinician notes. Demonstration projects suggest these techniques have the potential to be highly accurate, and await further validation and clinical application.
