Resection of Low-Grade Gliomas in the Face Area of the Primary Motor Cortex and Neurological Outcome.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveDuring surgery on low-grade gliomas (LGG), reliable data relevant to the primary motor cortex (M1) for the face area are lacking. We analyzed the impact of tumor removal within the M1 face area on neurological deficits.
methodsWe included LGG patients with resection within the M1 face area between May 2012 and November 2019. The primary endpoint was postoperative facial motor function. Secondary endpoints were postoperative aphasia, dysarthria, and dysphagia. Surgery was performed either with the awake protocol or under anesthesia with continuous dynamic mapping. The alarm criteria were speech arrest or a mapping threshold of 3 mA or less. Resection was completed in five patients. The resection was stopped due to the alarm criteria in three patients and for other reasons (vascular supply, patient performance) in four patients. A total of 66.7% (
