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
Introduction: To achieve a maximum extent of resection, intraoperative MRI (ioMRI) scan is frequently performed. Intraoperative diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) is not standardly performed and has been described to be inferior to early postoperative MRI regarding the detection of ischemia. Research question: This feasibility study evaluates the detection of ischemia by ioMRI and its clinical relevance in patients with motor-eloquent gliomas. Material and methods: Of 262 glioma patients, eight patients (3.1%) showed an amplitude loss of continuous motor evoked potential (MEP) monitoring during resection before the ioMRI scan (group loss of MEP = LOM). In these patients and a matched-pair cohort (MPC) of glioma resections without MEP loss, we performed additional ioMRI sequences including turbo-spin-echo (TSE)- and echo-planar-imaging (EPI)-DWI and perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI). The clinical outcome was measured 5 days and 3 months after surgery. Results: The mean ± standard time between loss of MEPs and ioMRI was 63.0 ± 8.7 min (range: 40-84). Ischemia within the motor system could be detected by ioMRI in group LOM in 100% EPI-DWIs, 75% TSE-DWIs, and 66.7% PWIs. No sequence showed motor ischemia in the MPC group. All patients of group LOM and no patient of group MPC suffered from permanent motor deficit. Discussion and conclusion: The current results provide data on the time sequence of ischemia apparent in MRI sequences which is superior to previous data on symptomatic stroke patients on this topic. The early detection of ischemia adds an additional predictor for the long-term outcome of patients and shows the reason of an intraoperative loss of MEPs. Thereby the performance of intraoperative EPI-DWI might be justified after confirmation of the present data in a larger cohort.Subcortical ischemia can be detected by ioMRI after MEP loss during the resection of motor-eloquent gliomas and was clinically relevant in all cases.
