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

backgroundExtended reality (XR) offers an interactive visualization platform that combines virtual reality (VR) for preoperative planning and augmented reality (AR) for intraoperative navigation overlay. OBSERVATIONS: XR was used for treating a case of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) requiring neurosurgical intervention to decompress a hemorrhage in the subcortical area involving the thalamus that was starting to compress the midbrain. The selected surgical technique was an endoscopic aspiration combined with neurosurgical navigation. Because of the deep-seated location of this ICH, a patient-specific 360XR model rendered using Surgical Theater was used for preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation to allow for enhanced visualization and understanding of the pathology and surrounding anatomy. LESSONS: The XR platform enabled visualization of critical structures near the ICH by extracting and highlighting the white matter tracts from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with tractography, which improved preoperative planning beyond using state-of-the-art neuronavigation techniques alone. Once the trajectory was set, the model was integrated with the neuronavigation system, and the planned approach was referenced throughout the procedure to evacuate the clots without further injuring the brain. The patient tolerated the procedure well and was doing well 11 months after his spontaneous ICH.
