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

A focal neurological deficit with sudden onset or rapid progression is an alarming symptom indicating a neurological disorder with often urgent need for treatment. Particularly in the emergency room, where time and resources are limited, it is necessary to rapidly assign such a focal neurological deficit to a certain syndrome and to define a suspected diagnosis in order to execute the correct diagnostics and emergency therapy. In this article, we highlight frequent and typical neurological disorders presenting in the emergency room and their corresponding focal neurological deficits. The article and a suggested algorithm are to guide less-experienced colleagues to find quick steps from acute symptoms to diagnosis and emergency treatment of frequent and relevant neurological disorders in the emergency room.
