Gamma knife thalamotomy in treating refractory tremor: initial clinical experience in Croatia.
Article in Croatian medical journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Tremor refractory to pharmacological therapy significantly reduces the patient´s quality of life, often leading to early retirement and social isolation. Gamma knife (GK) stereotactic radiosurgery of the unilateral thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus is an advanced, minimally invasive surgical procedure for symptomatic tremor suppression. Due to the restricted availability of this type of treatment, literature data on its efficacy and safety are lacking. We present two patients with severe, disabling tremor (one with parkinsonian and one with essential tremor) successfully treated with GK thalamotomy, performed in Croatia for the first time. GK thalamotomy should be considered in patients with refractory tremors and contraindications for deep brain stimulation.
