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

objectiveThis retrospective study aims to analyze hemorrhage complications in patients undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery, focusing on the impact of imaging modalities and trajectory planning.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective review of patients who underwent DBS at a single institution from September 2018 to February 2023. Surgical planning data were analyzed using a combination of 1.5 Tesla (T) and 3.0 T magnetic resonance image (MRI) for trajectory planning. Trajectories were classified into four types (type 1-4) based on the proximity of vascular structures within 2 mm on preoperative MRI scans, as defined in this study. Hemorrhage presence was evaluated through postoperative computed tomography scans.

resultsOut of 200 patients analyzed, type 1 trajectories (no vascular structures within 2 mm on both MRIs) accounted for 72.70% of cases with the lowest hemorrhage rate. Significant differences in hemorrhage rates were observed among the types, with higher risks associated with type 4 trajectories. Additionally, significant variations in vascular structure types were noted across DBS targets, with subthalamic nucleus showing the highest risk.

conclusionMeticulous trajectory planning using both 1.5 T and 3.0 T MRI is crucial in minimizing hemorrhagic complications in DBS. The study underscores the need for precise imaging and planning to enhance patient safety and surgical outcomes.
