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

Focused ultrasound ablation achieves selective thermal lesioning of the thalamic and basal ganglia targets using real-time MR imaging guidance. It is US Food and Drug Administration-approved to treat essential tremor and Parkinson's disease tremor, fluctuations, and dyskinesias. Patients often seek focused ultrasound treatment because symptom relief is immediate, and hardware implantation is not required. This review summarizes the current and potential future application of focused ultrasound ablation to treat movement disorders. We also discuss the ongoing research optimizing the technique of focused ultrasound ablation to improve long-term efficacy and minimize the risk of side effects.
