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

Right temporal lobe epilepsy (rTLE) is associated with disruptions in functional brain networks and structural connectivity, yet underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the alterations in modular interactions, connector hub (CH) topology, and related structural changes in rTLE patients. It included 30 rTLE patients and 30 matched healthy controls (HCs), all of whom underwent resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and volumetric MRI (vMRI). Functional networks were analyzed by assessing modular interactions, functional connectivity (FC), and CH topological properties. White matter microstructural differences were examined using tract-based spatial statistics (TBSS), while cortical morphometry was evaluated in key CH regions. Compared with HCs, rTLE patients showed reduced modularity (Q), small-world index (
