Postoperative use of steroids for peri-electrode edema after deep brain stimulation surgery: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in CNS neuroscience & therapeutics, 2024. 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
backgroundTo review the incidence and extent of peri-electrode edema after DBS and to clarify the effect of postoperative use of steroids on the peri-electrode edema.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study included 250 patients who underwent bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS surgery with intact MRI within 1 month after DBS surgery. Patients were divided into steroid and non-steroid groups, based on postoperative steroids use. The occurrence and extent of peri-electrode edema were compared between the two groups, and other associated factors were analyzed using univariate and multivariate methods.
resultsPeri-electrode edema >1 cm
conclusionsPeri-electrode edema is common after DBS surgery, and postoperative steroids use reduces the occurrence and extent of peri-electrode edema.
