1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo determine whether dipoles are an appropriate simplified representation of neural sources for stereo-EEG (sEEG).

methodsWe compared the distributions of voltages generated by a dipole, biophysically realistic cortical neuron models, and extended regions of cortex to determine how well a dipole represented neural sources at different spatial scales and at electrode to neuron distances relevant for sEEG. We also quantified errors introduced by the dipole approximation of neural sources in sEEG source localization using standardized low-resolution electrotomography (sLORETA).

resultsFor pyramidal neurons, the coefficient of correlation between voltages generated by a dipole and neuron model were > 0.9 for distances > 1 mm. For small regions of cortex (∼0.1 cm

conclusionsSingle dipoles are an appropriate source model to represent both single neurons and small regions of active cortex, while multiple dipoles are required to represent large regions of cortex. SIGNIFICANCE: Dipoles are computationally tractable and valid source models for sEEG.
