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

Bilateral adrenal hemorrhage (BAH) is a rare but potentially fatal entity that carries a mortality rate of 15%. Most cases are associated with sepsis, antiphospholipid syndrome, the use of anticoagulants, as well as trauma and surgery. In this case report, we present a case of BAH in a previously healthy man with a recent history of corticosteroid use. Our case emphasizes the ambiguous clinical presentation of BAH, which poses a challenge in the establishment of a correct diagnosis. We also illustrate the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and subsequent therapeutic approach to this rare clinical entity.
