Long-term satisfaction after extraoperative invasive EEG recording.

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
This retrospective cohort study investigated 53 patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy and identified factors predictive of long-term satisfaction of patients and families following extraoperative intracranial EEG (iEEG) recording. The mixed model analysis assessed the utility of intracranial EEG (iEEG) predictor variables, including the seizure-onset zone (SOZ), modulation index (MI), and naming-related high-gamma activity. Modulation index, quantifying the coupling between high-frequency activity at >80 Hz and local slow wave at 3-4 Hz, effectively functions as a surrogate marker of the burden of interictal spike-and-slow-wave discharges. The mixed model specifically incorporated 'subtraction-MI', defined as the subtraction of mean z-score normalized MI across all preserved sites from that across all resected sites. Auditory naming-related high-gamma activity at 70-110 Hz is a biomarker to characterize the underlying language and speech function. The model incorporated 'maximum resected high-gamma', defined as the high-gamma percent change largest among sites included in the resected language-dominant hemispheric region. The model also incorporated the clinical and imaging profiles of given patients. The analysis revealed that complete removal of SOZ (p = 0.003) and younger patient age (p = 0.040) were independently associated with greater satisfaction. Neither 'subtraction-MI' nor 'maximum naming-related high-gamma' showed a significant and independent association with long-term satisfaction in our patient cohort. The observed impact of complete resection of SOZ and early surgery can be considered when counseling candidates for epilepsy surgery.
