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

Despite the increasing use of stereoelectroencephalography, subdural electrode (SDE) implantation remains valuable to identify the epileptogenic network. Extra-axial hemorrhage, including subdural and epidural, is one of the most frequent complications of SDE implantation. This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with extra-axial hemorrhage post–SDE implantation in patients with focal drug-resistant epilepsy. We retrospectively reviewed consecutive patients who underwent SDE implantation via craniotomy at Hiroshima University Hospital between 2008 and 2022. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for postoperative extra-axial hemorrhage. A total of 64 patients were included in the analysis; 13 of them had extra-axial hemorrhage after SDE implantation, and two required hematoma evacuation. The hematoma thickness increased over time in 7 of 11 patients who did not undergo surgical intervention. Univariate analysis revealed that extra-axial hemorrhage was associated with the number of electrodes (p = 0.0138), the number of leads (p = 0.0320) and selection of an artificial dura substitute (p = 0.0087). In multivariate analysis, the use of an absorbable artificial dura substitute for duraplasty (OR = 7.69, 95% CI: 2.39–24.72, p = 0.0006) was independent risk factors for post-implantation extra-axial hemorrhage.The risk of this complication can be minimized through careful selection of dura substitute materials. Close observation is essential during SDE implantation because an extra-axial hematoma may develop over time.
