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

It is known that the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pulsation flow sign in the lateral ventricles directly above the foramen of Monro (CPF-M) on axial fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) is a normal physiological finding as an artifact of FLAIR. In this study, whether CPF-M can be used as a neuroradiological finding related to pathological conditions in patients with acute aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) was investigated. CPF-M-related clinical features were retrospectively evaluated in 147 aSAH patients who underwent adequate serial MRI examinations without massive intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) of the lateral ventricle within 48 h of ictus. The frequency of the CPF-M in the control group was 32% (57/178), 33% (40/123), and 38% (45/117) for the normal control, chronic cerebral infarction, and deep white matter lesion (WML) groups, respectively. In aSAH patients, the overall prevalence of the CPF-M was 57% (84/147), significantly higher than in the three control groups. Multivariate analysis showed that age <70 years, lower IVH Hijdra score of the fourth ventricle, absence of T
