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

backgroundWhen treating parafalx lesions, the bridging veins or the frontal sinuses can sometimes obstruct access. Preserving these structures to avoid surgical complications is preferred.

methodsWe described the concept of the selective interhemispheric oblique approach (SIOA), which combines exoscopic and endoscopic visualization with gravity-assisted brain retraction to ensure safe access to the parafalx lesions.

conclusionsThe SIOA is a precise and versatile technique for treating parafalx lesions, particularly in anatomically complex areas. With this approach, it's possible to mitigate risk of venous injury or sinus opening, avoid the retraction of eloquent areas, and obtain excellent surgical outcomes.
