Cerebrospinal Fluid Leakage to the Chest Subcutaneous Pocket Due to Aggressive Brain Edema around the Leads for Deep Brain Stimulation: A Case Report and Literature Review.

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
Cerebral edema around the lead has been reported as a complication of deep brain stimulation; however, the causes remain unknown. Herein, we present a rare case of sudden cerebral edema around the lead occurring after deep brain stimulation. This was accompanied by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage into the subcutaneous thoracic pocket around the implantable pulse generator in a 53-year-old man with Parkinson's disease. No such case has been reported thus far. Lumbar drainage was performed to improve CSF leakage. The cerebral edema initially responded to steroids, but then it stopped responding to treatment. The edema appeared alternately on the left and right sides, and cyst formation was noted around the left lead. There are some reports of cyst formation around the lead; however, in our case, images were used to monitor the edema and cyst from their appearance to their disappearance. Our data suggest that cyst formation and cerebral edema are related.
