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

purposeThe corpus callosum (CC) is the primary interhemispheric connection between the two cerebral hemispheres. Besides their similar morphological characters, there are differences in their measurements. This study aimed to divide the CC into groups using planes based on the anterior commissure (AC) and posterior commissure (PC) and to detect differences in CC magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cadaver samples between these groups.

methodsThe study included 80 patients (40 male and 40 female patients) who underwent normal MRI in the midsagittal plane, and 38 cerebral hemispheres from 40 adult cadaver brains, with each hemisected in the midsagittal plane. The medial surface of the CC was divided vertically into three parts (the anterior, middle, and posterior zones) according to the AC and PC. Areas and parameters were measured in both the cadaveric hemispheres and patient MRI images.

resultsThe total CC area and CC areas between, anterior, and posterior to the AC-PC vertical lines were the same in both the MRI and cadaver samples. In addition, morphometric measurements like the CC length, AC-PC length, and CC height at the AC and PC vertical lines, and their correlations were also found to be similar between the MRI and cadaver samples.

conclusionThis study proposes three areas according to AC and PC classification (anterior, middle, and posterior). This new proposed classification is suitable for stereotactic interventions and is useful for obtaining data from MRI images. However, it should be kept in mind that there may be changes and variations.
