Prophylactic Administration of Perampanel for Post-Stroke Epilepsy (PROPELLER Study): A Trial Protocol.

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
backgroundPost-stroke epilepsy can reduce patients' abilities to carry out various activities of daily living. Despite their importance in preventing the onset of post-stroke epilepsy, the prophylactic administration of antiepileptic drugs is controversial due to a lack of high-level clinical research. In this study, we initiated a prospective interventional study of prophylactic antiepileptic drug administration in patients with a subcortical hemorrhage, who are at the highest risk of developing epilepsy after experiencing a stroke.
methodsThe study was conducted in a single-center setting and was a single-arm study with no control group; the case entry period started in November 2023 and is due to end in March 2025. Only cases with a subcortical hemorrhage will be included. The treatment regimen used in this study is 2 mg of perampanel per day. Perampanel will be administered for one year, followed by two years of follow-up, for a total study period of three years. The primary endpoint will be the development of epilepsy.
resultsPerampanel administration is expected to reduce the incidence of post-stroke epilepsy in comparison to the results of previous reports on the use of alternative treatments.
conclusionsThe results of this study will provide new insights into the prevention of post-stroke epilepsy. The relatively small size of this study makes it difficult to provide strong evidence of the efficacy of perampanel, but it may serve as a basis for larger clinical trials.
