Perioperative Seizures and Quality of Life in Falx and Convexity Meningiomas: Key Factors of Patient Outcomes.

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
backgroundFalx and convexity meningiomas can compress surrounding brain structures, frequently resulting in epileptic seizures, which adversely impact the quality of life (QoL) of affected patients. This study aimed to assess postoperative QoL in patients with documented perioperative seizures associated with falx and convexity meningiomas.
methodsThe Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory-31 (QOLIE-31) was administered to patients who underwent surgery for falx/convexity meningiomas and experienced perioperative seizures. Seizures were defined as those occurring within 30 days pre- or post-surgery.
resultsA total of 77 patients responded to the questionnaire, of whom 44 were female and 33 were male. Multivariable analysis showed that falx meningioma was associated with a lower QOLIE-31 score (OR = 4.02, 95% CI: 1.14-14.18,
conclusionsThis study demonstrates that perioperative seizures in patients with falx meningiomas significantly impact postoperative quality of life. The presence of peritumoral edema was also associated with poorer QoL outcomes. These findings underscore the importance of targeted management strategies to to improve QoL in meningioma patients experiencing seizures.
