Entropy of the resting state cortex in epilepsy.
Article in Biomedical physics & engineering express, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Epilepsy has long been conceptualized as a disorder in which aberrant brain dynamics extend beyond the epileptogenic zone. Evidence demonstrates that loss of entropy is a generic feature of pathological dynamics in the brain, including the ictal state. However, the impact of recurrent seizures on entropy in the interictal state remains unknown. Resting state magnetoencephalography (MEG) scans and resection masks of 32 individuals with epilepsy who had Engel I outcome post-surgery were retrospectively retrieved. Using co-registered FreeSurfer parcellations, we reconstructed the source localized MEG time series and computed sample entropy (SE) for 114 regions of interest. We then tested the association of entropy with the resected volume of the brain, and additional clinical variables including the age of seizure onset, seizure frequency and duration of epilepsy. To further understand the temporal relationship between seizure onset and entropy in the interictal state, we collected and computed SE for week-long electroencephalography traces from leucine-rich glioma inactivated 1 monoclonal antibody (LGI1-mAb) rodent models of autoimmune encephalitis (
