1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Epilepsy is a prevalent and serious neurological condition which impacts millions of people worldwide. Stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) is used in cases of drug resistant epilepsy to aid in surgical resection planning due to its high spatial resolution and ability to visualize seizure onset zones. For accurate localization of the seizure focus, sEEG studies combine pre-implantation magnetic resonance imaging, post-implant computed tomography to visualize electrodes, and temporally recorded sEEG electrophysiological data. Many tools exist to assist in merging multimodal spatial information; however, few allow for an integrated spatiotemporal view of the electrical activity. In the current work, we present SEEG4D, an automated tool to merge spatial and temporal data into a complete, four-dimensional virtual reality (VR) object with temporal electrophysiology that enables the simultaneous viewing of anatomy and seizure activity for seizure localization and presurgical planning. We developed an automated, containerized pipeline to segment tissues and electrode contacts. Contacts are aligned with electrical activity and then animated based on relative power. SEEG4D generates models which can be loaded into VR platforms for viewing and planning with the surgical team. Automated contact segmentation locations are within 1 mm of trained raters and models generated show signal propagation along electrodes. Critically, spatial-temporal information communicated through our models in a VR space have potential to enhance sEEG pre-surgical planning.
