Acute subdural haematoma accompanied by anorexia nervosa.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
We report the case of a patient with anorexia nervosa accompanied by acute subdural haematoma following a fall. A 34-year-old Japanese woman had serious medical complications and brain atrophy. After careful nutritional treatment, her laboratory test results improved and brain atrophy was reversed, and we prevented to perform surgery. However, unexpected prominent oedema of her lower legs and pleural effusion occurred. After receiving treatment for these symptoms, she eventually returned to her former occupation and started following a normal diet. Very few cases of anorexia nervosa accompanied by intracranial haemorrhage have been reported. Coagulation disorder and brain atrophy are supposed to be the primary causes of haematoma formation in the present case. Intracranial haemorrhage likely occurs in patients with anorexia nervosa despite minor head trauma. Because anorexia nervosa is not rare and the age of such patients is advancing, knowledge regarding this disorder would be useful for neurosurgeons.
