Hyperdense Middle Cerebral Artery Sign Together with Pulmonary Thromboembolism.
Article in Polish journal of radiology, 2016. 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
backgroundHyperdense middle cerebral artery sign is an appearance of the middle cerebral artery on non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography. Embolic occlusion of the pulmonary arterial system is referred to as pulmonary embolism. When pulmonary embolism coexists with a patent foramen ovale, increased pressure in the right atrium may result in widening of the foramen and consequently, cause serious conditions due to paradoxical embolus. Coexistence of hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign and pulmonary thromboembolism is very rare in the literature. CASE REPORT: We presented a 60-year-old female patient who had both hyperdense middle cerebral artery sign and pulmonary thromboembolism.
conclusionsTo our knowledge, togetherness of hyperdense MCA sign and pulmonary thromboembolism is extremely rare in the literature. In our case, we found both pulmonary embolism due to DVT and paradoxical embolism due to existing patent foramen ovale.
