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
Objective: This study sought to characterize postoperative day one MRI findings in deep brain stimulation (DBS) patients. Methods: DBS patients were identified by CPT and had their reviewed by a trained neuroradiologist and neurosurgeon blinded to MR sequence and patient information. The radiographic abnormalities of interest were track microhemorrhage, pneumocephalus, hematomas, and edema, and the occurrence of these findings in compare the detection of these complications between T1/T2 gradient-echo (GRE) and T1/T2 fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) magnetic resonance (MR) sequences was compared. The presence, size, and association of susceptibility artifact with other radiographic abnormalities was also described. Lastly, the association of multiple microelectrode cannula passes with each radiographic finding was evaluated. Results: Out of 198 DBS patients reviewed, 115 (58%) patients showed entry microhemorrhage; 77 (39%) track microhemorrhage; 44 (22%) edema; 69 (35%) pneumocephalus; and 12 (6%) intracranial hematoma. T2 GRE was better for detecting microhemorrhage (OR = 14.82, Discussion: Day one postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for DBS patients can be used to detect numerous radiographic abnormalities not identifiable on a computed tomographic (CT) scan. For this cohort, multiple stimulating cannula passes intraoperatively was associated with increased microhemorrhage along the electrode track. Further studies should be performed to evaluate the clinical relevance of these observations.
