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

Aim: High blood pressure is observed frequently in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage who present to the emergency department. Although extremely high blood pressure is known to predict poor outcomes in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, the relationship between high blood pressure and outcomes has been studied less frequently in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Methods: A retrospective study was carried out to evaluate whether high blood pressure observed in the emergency department was predictive of poor outcomes in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Three-hundred and twelve subarachnoid hemorrhage patients who were admitted to our institution were quadrichotomized based on their initial systolic blood pressure: <140 mmHg ( Results: The frequency of grade V subarachnoid hemorrhage in the ≥220 mmHg group (55%) was significantly higher than in the other three blood pressure groups. The frequency of patients scoring 5-6 on the modified Rankin scale in the ≥220 mmHg group (54%) was significantly higher than in the other three blood pressure groups. The cut-off systolic blood pressure value predicting poor outcomes (modified Rankin scale 5-6) determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was 189 mmHg. Conclusions: The higher proportion of grade V patients may be responsible for the worse outcomes in the group with systolic blood pressure ≥220 mmHg. Initial systolic blood pressure ≥220 mmHg may be a crude indicator of poor outcomes in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage.
