Individual cerebellar metabolic connectome in patients with MTLE and NTLE associated with surgical prognosis.
Article in European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposeThis study aimed to comprehensively explore the different metabolic connectivity topological changes in MTLE and NTLE, as well as their association with surgical outcomes.
methodsThis study enrolled a cohort of patients with intractable MTLE and NTLE. Each individual's metabolic connectome, as determined by Kullback-Leibler divergence similarity estimation for the [
resultsBoth MTLE and NTLE patients exhibited substantial alterations in the connectivity of the metabolic network at the edge and nodal levels (p < 0.01, FDR corrected). The key disparity between MTLE and NTLE was observed in the cerebellum. In MTLE, there was a predominance of increased connectivity strength in the cerebellum. Whereas, a decrease in cerebellar connectivity was identified in NTLE. It was found that in MTLE, higher edge connectivity and weighted connectivity strength in the contralateral cerebellar hemisphere correlated with improved surgical outcomes. Conversely, in NTLE, a higher edge metabolic connectivity strength in the ipsilateral cerebellar hemisphere suggested a worse surgical prognosis.
conclusionThe cerebellum exhibits distinct topological characteristics in the metabolic networks between MTLE and NTLE. The hyper- or hypo-metabolic connectivity in the cerebellum may be a prognostic biomarker of surgical prognosis, which might aid in therapeutic decision-making for TLE individuals.
