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

backgroundThere is a paucity of reliable recent data regarding epidemiology of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) of undetermined etiology in population-based studies.

objectivesTo determine the incidence and case fatality of ICH of undetermined etiology using a population-based design.

methodsMedical records and neuroimaging data of all patients with ICH from Stearns and Benton Counties, Minnesota, between June 1st, 2012 and June 30th, 2014 were reviewed. Patients with a first-time diagnosis of ICH were categorized as of undetermined etiology if ICH was without features typical of hypertensive etiology with normal or no magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/angiograms. We calculated the incidences of [1] probable and possible hypertensive ICH; [2] related to arteriovenous malformation, cavernous malformation, or aneurysmal rupture (angiographic or MRI diagnoses); [3] secondary to anticoagulation; and [4] of undetermined etiology adjusted for age and sex based on the 2010 US census.

resultsOf the 50 identified ICHs among 136,654 resident populations, seven were true incident cases of ICH of undetermined etiology in this population-based study. The age- and sex-adjusted incidence of ICH of undetermined etiology was 2.6 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.7-4.9] per 100, 000 person-years, which was lower than probable and possible hypertensive ICH incidence of 12.8 [95% CI 8.4-17.2] per 100,000 person-years. The age-adjusted case fatality rate at 1 month was 8.14 and 0.4 per 100,000 persons for probable and possible hypertensive ICHs and ICHs of undetermined etiology, respectively.

conclusionsOur results should prompt further studies into identification of causes in ICH patients presently classified as ICH of undetermined etiology to reduce the incidence and case fatality of such ICHs.
