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

Atlantooccipital assimilation is defined as the complete or partial fusion of the caudal portion of the occiput with the cranial portion of the atlas. We report an extremely rare case of a traumatic dislocation of the atlas from the axis (C1 from C2), which lead to internal decapitation in a patient with atlantooccipital assimilation. This report reviews the background of atlantooccipital assimilations and their clinical relevance.
