Brain CT Scan, Sonography and EEG Findings in Neonates with Seizure.
Article in Iranian journal of child neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the frequency of different types, causes, and abnormal findings of brain computed tomography scan (CT scan) and ultrasonography (US) and multichannel- electroencephalography (EEG) in neonates with seizure. The ability of brain CT scan was also compared with US in terms of detecting the underlying causes of neonatal seizures. Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional retrospective study, the medical records of 90 neonates younger than 28 days with the definite diagnosis of seizure were reviewed. The data were analyzed using SPSS 22 through descriptive and Exact fisher tests. Results: Totally, 90 newborns (M: F = 1.5:1) with mean age of 63.11 ± 32.8 days were enrolled. 35.5% of newborns were born before the 37 Conclusions: Given the accuracy of EEG in detection of brain pathologies, where available, all neonatal seizures should be initially confirmed using EEG. Radiologic investigations (CT scan, US) off the head/ cranium should be done to detect the cause of neonatal seizure. The capacity of brain CT scan to detect underlying causes of neonatal seizures is more than US.
