uSINE-PAMS Artificial Intelligence-Driven, Ultrasound-Guided Lumbar Puncture to Improve Procedural Accuracy: A Pilot Study Report.
Article in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05824546 (uSINE-PAMS Artificial Intelligence Driven, Ultrasound-Guided Lumbar Puncture to Improve Procedural Accuracy), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
Background: Traditional lumbar punctures (LPs) often fail, leading to diagnostic delays and increased risks. Ultrasound guidance provides improved success rates but faces adoption barriers due to neuraxial-ultrasound training and implementation challenges. The Ultrasound-Guided Spinal Landmark Identification With Needle Navigation System and Position and Angular Marking System (uSINE-PAMS) were designed to address these issues: uSINE is a machine-learning software for neuraxial-ultrasound guidance; PAMS is a hardware that translates ultrasound data for accurate needle insertion. Recent Findings: A pilot study with 10 patients showed that uSINE-PAMS-guided LP achieved an 80% first-pass success rate with no complication; the median patient age was 43 years, and the median body mass index was 24.5 kg/m Implications for Practice: This pilot study showed that uSINE-PAMS-guided LP is feasible with a promising first-pass success rate at 80%. An ongoing phase 2 study (NCT05824546) of uSINE-PAMS may alter future standard of practice for LPs. Trial Registration Information: This pilot study is registered under ClinicalTrials.gov (ID: NCT05824546).
