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

Several noninvasive methods, such as high-density EEG or magnetoencephalography, are currently used to delineate the epileptogenic zone (EZ) during the presurgical evaluation of patients with drug resistant epilepsy (DRE). Yet, none of these methods can reliably identify the EZ by their own. In most cases a multimodal approach is needed. Challenging cases often require the implantation of intracranial electrodes, either through stereo-taxic EEG or electro-corticography. Recently, a growing body of literature introduces novel biomarkers of epilepsy that can be used for analyzing both invasive as well as noninvasive electrophysiological data. Some of these biomarkers are able to delineate the EZ with high precision, augment the presurgical evaluation, and predict the surgical outcome of patients with DRE undergoing surgery. However, the use of these epilepsy biomarkers in clinical practice is limited. Here, we summarize and discuss the latest technological advances in the presurgical neurophysiological evaluation of children with DRE with emphasis on electric and magnetic source imaging, high frequency oscillations, and functional connectivity.
