Surgical treatment methods in the course of psychiatric disorders: Deep brain stimulation-Novel insights and indications.
Review in Indian journal of psychiatry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a relatively dated treatment procedure that emerged in the late 1980s. Nonetheless, numerous studies are being carried out to examine its influence on the human brain and develop new treatment indications. This systematic review aims to summarize the current state of knowledge referring to DBS, investigate novel insights into its indications, and discuss the technical aspects and rationale behind DBS application. In particular, we sought to subject to scrutiny the application of DBS specifically in anorexia nervosa (AN), various addiction types, depression, and obsessive-compulsive disorders (OCDs). The method is supposed to offer promising results, especially in pharmacologically resistant forms of the upper-mentioned psychiatric disorders. Moreover, further insight has been provided into the historical notions of the method and differences in the surgical approach in specific disease entities. Furthermore, we mark the possible influence of comorbidities on treatment results. Our review consists of articles and studies found on PubMed, Google Scholar, Cochrane, and Scopus, which were then analyzed with scrutiny in the identification process, including the most resourceful ones. After methodological quality and risk of bias assessment, a total of 53 studies were included. To this date, DBS's usefulness in the treatment of AN, OCDs, depression, and addictions has been proven, despite an ongoing debate concerning the technical aspects and parameters when applying DBS. To the best of our knowledge, we have not found any paper that would recapitulate the current state of DBS in the context of psychiatric disorders with an addition of technical insights.
