Single-Electrode Deep Brain Stimulation of Bilateral Posterolateral Globus Pallidus Internus in Patients With Medically Resistant Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting various locations within the globus pallidus internus (GPi) is emerging as a therapeutic option for patients with medically resistant Lesch-Nyhan syndrome. We report our institutional experience with single-electrode DBS in the bilateral posterolateral GPi as an effective method for reduction of both dystonia and self-injurious behavior. Two pediatric patients aged six and 14 years underwent implantation of bilateral singular DBS leads in the posterolateral GPi and were followed postoperatively through the programming process and symptomatic improvements. Caregivers reported that after DBS in the posterolateral GPi, these patients experienced decreased self-mutilation behavior and decreased dystonia.
