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

introductionHypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HI-BI), a result of oxygen deprivation of the brain, is accompanied by memory impairment. In this study, we report on a patient with neural injury of the Papez circuit following HI-BI, demonstrated by diffusion tensor tractography (DTT). CLINICAL FINDINGS/PATIENT CONCERNS: A 48-year-old male patient suffered spontaneous cardiopulmonary arrest and underwent cardiopulmonary resuscitation for approximately 20 minutes with the concomitant oxygen deprivation leading to HI-BI. The patient showed severe memory impairment at 10 weeks after onset: a Mini-Mental State Examination score of 11 (full score: 30, cut-off score < 24), and examination using the memory function test was not possible due to severe cognitive deficit. OUTCOMES: On 10-week DTT, discontinuation of the fornical column was observed in both hemispheres and thinning of the thalamocingulate tract was observed in the right hemisphere and nonreconstruction in the left hemisphere.

conclusionUsing DTT, neural injury of the Papez circuit was demonstrated in a patient with memory impairment following HI-BI. These results suggest that analysis of the Papez circuit using DTT could provide beneficial information by detecting injury of the Papez circuit that cannot be detected on conventional brain MRI in patients with HI-BI.
