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

Background: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), as a minimally invasive method that can stably collect intracranial electroencephalographic information over long periods, has increasingly been applied in the diagnosis and treatment of intractable epilepsy in recent years. Over the past 20 years, with the advancement of materials science and computer science, the application scenarios of SEEG have greatly expanded. Bibliometrics, as a method of scientifically analyzing published literature, can summarize the evolutionary process in the SEEG field and offer insights into its future development prospects. Methods: This article selected all the literature records retrieved on November 4, 2024, from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). The search terms were as follows: "Stereo-electroencephalography" or "Stereo electroencephalography" or "Stereo-EEG" or "Stereo EEG" or "SEEG." The document types included were research articles and reviews. For analysis, VOSviewer, CiteSpace, and the R package "bibliometrix" were employed to analyze various aspects of the SEEG field, including authors, institutions, countries and regions, and research hotspots. Results: We reviewed a total of 1,383 non-duplicate literature records from 2002 to 2023, including 1,241 research articles, 116 review articles and 26 letters. Observing the annual publication trends, there has been an overall increase since 2002. The most influential journal in this field is Conclusion: As a minimally invasive tool for collecting intracranial electroencephalographic signals, SEEG continues to offer vast potential for development and application. Advances in electrode materials and robotic-assisted stereotactic techniques, have enabled SEEG to simultaneously sample multiple brain regions, acquire electrical signals from deep brain structures. These advantages significantly enhance the precision of epileptic focus localization in diagnosis and treatment, addressing the limitations of subdural electrodes. Through bibliometric analysis, this paper traces the developmental trajectory of SEEG and identifying key technological milestones, thereby providing a reference for scholarly research directions.
