Cognitive Impairment in MRI-Negative Epilepsy: Relationship between Neurophysiological and Neuropsychological Measures.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundEpileptic patients frequently encounter cognitive impairment. Functions that are mostly affected involve memory, attention, and executive function; however, this is mainly dependent on the location of the epileptic activity. The aim of the present study is to assess cognitive functions in MRI-negative epilepsy patients by means of neurophysiological and neuropsychological measures, as well as study the concept of transient cognitive impairment in patients with epileptiform discharges during EEG acquisition.
methodsThe patients were enrolled from an outpatient Epilepsy/Clinical Neurophysiology clinic over a time period of 6 months. The study sample comprised 20 MRI-negative epilepsy patients (mean age ± standard deviation (SD), 30.3 ± 12.56 years; age range, 16-60 years; average disease duration, 13.95 years) and 10 age-matched controls (mean age ± SD, 24.22 ± 15.39 years), who were also education-matched (
resultsLatencies of P300 and slow waves were prolonged in patients compared to controls (
