Electroencephalography.
Review in Journal of neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 27 papers.
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
Notwithstanding recent advances in neuroimaging, EEG remains a major technique for investigation of the brain. Its main applications are in assessment of cerebral function rather than for detecting structural abnormalities. The principal clinical applications are in epilepsy, states of altered consciousness including postanoxic and traumatic coma, the parasomnias, dementias, toxic confusional states, cerebral infections, and various other encephalopathies. Abnormalities in EEG reflect general pathophysiological processes, raised intracranial pressure, cerebral anoxia, or oedema, epileptogenesis etc, and show little specificity for a particular disease. Consequently, they need to be interpreted in a particular clinical context; the use of routine EEG examination for screening purposes is rarely of value. Conversely, the investigation becomes most cost effective when applied to specific problems--for instance, monitoring serial changes in postanoxic coma or during open heart surgery, differential diagnosis (by telemetric ictal recordings) of epileptic and non-epileptic attacks, and providing early prediction of outcome after stroke. High technological standards and an individualised problem solving approach are prerequisites of a cost effective, reliable clinical EEG service. These are most likely to be achieved by a considered, selective referral policy, the use where necessary of prolonged complex procedures such as telemetry, and the avoidance of routine examinations of dubious clinical relevance.
