The Value of Intraoperative Ultrasound in Brain Surgery.
Article in Advances and technical standards in neurosurgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Favorable clinical outcomes in adult and pediatric neurosurgical oncology generally depend on the extent of tumor resection (EOR). Maximum safe resection remains the main aim of surgery in most intracranial tumors. Despite the accuracy of intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI) in the detection of residual intraoperatively, it is not widely implemented worldwide owing to enormous cost and technical difficulties. Over the past years, intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) has imposed itself as a valuable and reliable intraoperative tool guiding neurosurgeons to achieve gross total resection (GTR) of intracranial tumors.Being less expensive, feasible, doesn't need a high level of training, doesn't need a special workspace, and being real time with outstanding temporal and spatial resolution; all the aforementioned advantages give a superiority for IOUS in comparison to iMRI during resection of brain tumors.In this chapter, we spot the light on the technical nuances, advanced techniques, outcomes of resection, pearls, and pitfalls of the use of IOUS during the resection of brain tumors.
