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

Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) may occur following head trauma and contribute to intracranial hypertension that mandates immediate action. Anticoagulant therapy is the first line of treatment in CVST but may not be applicable in patients with head trauma. Here, we report on the treatment of 2 patients with CVST. In 1 patient, there was an attempt to perform thrombectomy and thrombolysis, and eventually a decompressive craniectomy was performed. In this patient, there was an excellent outcome. In the other patient, an immediate decompressive craniectomy was performed that did not improve the outcome.
