Multimodal approach leads to seizure-freedom in a case of highly refractory drug-resistant focal epilepsy.

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
Drug-resistant, nonlesional, extratemporal lobe focal epilepsy can be difficult to treat and may require a high degree of multidisciplinary teamwork to localize the seizure onset zone for resective surgery. Here, we describe a patient with longstanding drug-resistant, nonlesional, extratemporal focal epilepsy with a high seizure burden who became seizure-free after prolonged evaluation and eventual left frontal cortical resection. Prior evaluations included magnetoencephalography, invasive video-EEG monitoring, and implantation of a responsive neurostimulation (RNS) device for ongoing intracranial stimulation. Highly sophisticated techniques were utilized including stereotactic localization of prior evaluations to guide repeat stereo-EEG (SEEG), electrical stimulation mapping, SEEG-guided radiofrequency ablation, and awake resection with language and motor mapping using a cognitive testing platform . Incorporating a wide array of data from multiple centers and evaluation time periods was necessary to optimize seizure control and minimize the risk of neurological deficits from surgery.
