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

Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE)-affecting 2%-50% of traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors with severity-dependent incidence-drives secondary neurodegeneration through elevated intracranial pressure (ICP), axonal injury, and neuroinflammatory cascades. While integrated risk stratification (e.g., cortical contusion, acute subdural hematoma on CT; blood-brain barrier disruption via dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI) enhances epileptogenesis prediction, mechanistic understanding of circuit reorganization underlying chronic hyperexcitability remains incomplete. Diagnosis integrates trauma history, seizure semiology, and multimodal monitoring (high-density EEG correlated with [18F] FDG-PET hypometabolism), yet evidence-based prophylaxis is confined to early PTE prevention. In this review, we will describe the progress in incidence, predictors, pathophysiological mechanisms diagnosis, prophylaxis, and treatments with the respect to PTE, providing a comprehensive overview of this subject.
