Virtual preoperative planning and 3D tumoral reconstruction with Horos open-source software.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Presurgical three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions allow spatial localization of cerebral lesions and their relationship with adjacent anatomical structures for optimal surgical resolution. The purpose of the present article is to present a method of virtual preoperative planning aiming to enhance 3D comprehension of neurosurgical pathologies using free DICOM image viewers. Case Description: We describe the virtual presurgical planning of a 61-year-old female presenting a cerebral tumor. 3D reconstructions were created with the "Horos Conclusion: Digital manipulation of cerebral structures can increase anatomical comprehension of neurosurgical lesions to be treated. 3D interpretation of neurosurgical pathologies and adjacent anatomical structures is essential for developing an effective and safe surgical approach. The described technique is a feasible and accessible option for presurgical planning.
