Effect of HUK on the outcome of ruptured intracranial aneurysm.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of Human Urinary Kallidinogenase (HUK) on the outcome of patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm.
methodsThis was a prospective, open-label study. At the Department of Neurosurgery in our hospital, 127 patients were treated and operated due to ruptured intracranial aneurysm in the period 2015-2016. After surgery, all the patients received basic treatment and 70 patients received additional HUK treatment (HUK group) according to their willing. In detail, 0.15 PNA unit of HUK injection plus 100 ml saline in intravenous infusion was performed, with once a day for 14 consecutive days. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores and favorable mRS rates (mRS 0-1) were analyzed 3-month after the treatment.
resultsNo difference was shown in the basic characteristics between the two groups (p > 0.05). Favorable mRS rate in the HUK group (71.43%) was significantly higher than that in control group (50.88%, p < 0.05). In addition, 3-month death rate was significantly lower in the HUK group. Delayed ischemic stroke rate was similar between the two groups.
conclusionHUK can reduce morbidity and mortality of patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm after surgery.
