Closed-loop controller based on reference signal tracking for absence seizures.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. 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
Absent epilepsy is a kind of refractory epilepsy, which is characterized by 2-4 Hz spike and wave discharges (SWDs) in electroencephalogram. Open-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN) is an effective method to treat absent epilepsy by eliminating SWDs in the brain. Compared with open-loop DBS, closed-loop DBS has been recognized by researchers for its advantages of significantly inhibiting seizures and having fewer side effects. Since traditional trial-and-error methods for adjusting closed-loop controller parameters are too dependent on the experience of doctors, in this paper we designed two proportional integral (PI) controllers based on the basal ganglia-cortical-thalamic model, whose PI parameters are calculated from the stability of the system. The two PI controllers can automatically adjust the frequency and amplitude of DBS respectively according to the change of the firing rate detected by substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr). The parameters of the PI controller are calculated based on the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion of a linear system which transformed by the original system using controlled auto-regressive (CAR) model and recursive least squares (RLS) method. Numerical simulation results show that both PI controllers significantly destroy the SWDs of the cerebral cortex and restore it to the other two normal discharge modes according to the different target firing rate, which supplies a promising brain stimulation strategy.
