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.

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.

Abstract

Introduction: The BrainDrugs-Epilepsy Study is part of the established Lundbeck Foundation funded BrainDrugs research alliance (braindrugs.nru.dk). The study aims to identify biomarkers of treatment outcome as well as cognitive and psychiatric comorbidity in patients with a first epileptic seizure and epilepsy. Our goal is to provide a patient-level prediction of treatment response. Methods: In a prospective cohort study design, we will consecutively include a total of 200 patients who have experienced their first epileptic seizure and 150 newly diagnosed patients with epilepsy ( Discussion: We hypothesize that seizures, cognitive impairment, and psychiatric symptoms share common neurobiological mechanisms that can be identified using MRI, PET, and EEG. We will assess how these biomarkers change over time and in response to treatment, providing novel insights into disease trajectories in the first years of epilepsy. Clinical trial registration: NCT05450822. Retrospectively registered July 5, 2022 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?term=NCT05450822&Search=Search).
