Selective dorsal rhizotomy using a 3D high definition exoscope.

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
Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is an established neurosurgical technique for children with spastic diplegia secondary to cerebral palsy. Meticulous intraoperative testing of individual nerve roots with electromyography in tandem with the on-site neurorehabilitation team is recommended for good clinical outcomes. The standard approach requires the neurosurgeons to spend extended time under the traditional operating microscope. In this video, the authors describe the use of a 3D exoscope system for SDR. Overall, the 3D exoscope improves ergonomics and reduces musculoskeletal fatigue for the operating neurosurgeons. Furthermore, it provides excellent visualization of important structures, allowing safe and efficient completion of the procedure.
