Delayed Intracerebral Hemorrhage after Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease.
Article in Case reports in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Introduction: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a well-established treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), offering significant symptomatic relief. Although DBS is generally considered safe, it carries risks, including the potential for delayed complications such as intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Case Presentation: We present a rare case of a 67-year-old male with PD who developed delayed ICH after undergoing bilateral STN DBS. Initially, the patient showed no neurological deficits postoperatively, with imaging confirming correct lead placement and no signs of hemorrhage. However, on the second postoperative day, the patient developed sudden right-sided hemiparesis. A CT scan revealed ICH alongside the left lead. The hemorrhage was managed conservatively, and the patient underwent extensive physical therapy, leading to significant improvement. Over the next 2 weeks, the patient's condition improved, and follow-up CT scans showed complete resolution of the ICH. At this point, the left lead stimulation was initiated, further improving the patient's PD symptoms. This case illustrates the potential for delayed ICH following STN DBS, emphasizing the need for ongoing monitoring and individualized treatment strategies. Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of vigilant postoperative monitoring and individualized management strategies in STN DBS patients. Early detection and appropriate management of complications such as ICH are crucial for minimizing risks and ensuring optimal patient outcomes. The potential for delayed complications highlights the need for continuous follow-up, even in the absence of immediate postoperative issues.
