Xper-CT combined with laser-assisted navigation radiofrequency thermocoagulation in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 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
Objective: Our objective was to study the clinical feasibility of Xper-CT combined with laser-assisted radiofrequency thermocoagulation in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. Materials and methods: A retrospective analysis was made of 60 patients with trigeminal neuralgia who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University from January 2019 to May 2021. According to the different surgical methods, we were divided into C-arm X-ray group and laser navigation group. The operation time, operative complications, post-operative 24 h, post-operative 3 and 6 months Barrow Neurotics Institute (BNI) score were recorded and compared. Results: Compared with the C-arm X-ray-guided puncture group, Xper-CT combined with laser-assisted navigation has the obvious advantages of shorter total puncture time, shorter surgical time, higher success rate of first puncture, and better surgical effect. Conclusion: Radiofrequency therapy of trigeminal neuralgia with Xper-CT combined with laser-assisted navigation has a good clinical effect and can be promoted and applied.
