Novel targets in deep brain stimulation for movement disorders.
Review in Neurosurgical review, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The neurosurgical treatment of movement disorders, primarily via deep brain stimulation (DBS), is a rapidly expanding and evolving field. Although conventional targets including the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPi) for Parkinson's disease and ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalams (VIM) for tremor provide substantial benefit in terms of both motor symptoms and quality of life, other targets for DBS have been explored in an effort to maximize clinical benefit and also avoid undesired adverse effects associated with stimulation. These novel targets primarily include the rostral zona incerta (rZI), caudal zona incerta (cZI)/posterior subthalamic area (PSA), prelemniscal radiation (Raprl), pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), centromedian/parafascicular (CM/PF) nucleus of the thalamus, nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM), dentato-rubro-thalamic tract (DRTT), dentate nucleus of the cerebellum, external segment of the globus pallidus (GPe), and ventral oralis (VO) complex of the thalamus. However, reports of outcomes utilizing these targets are scattered and disparate. In order to provide a comprehensive resource for researchers and clinicians alike, we have summarized the existing literature surrounding these novel targets, including rationale for their use, neurosurgical techniques where relevant, outcomes and adverse effects of stimulation, and future directions for research.
