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

We report the case of a 4-year-old girl with acute subdural hematoma who presented to the emergency department after an unwitnessed fall of the balcony. The hematoma was hyperdense along the left convexity of 9 mm thickness with a consequent mass effect with obliteration of the adjacent sulci, left lateral ventricle compression and a midline shift of 7 mm. During her stay in the emergency department while waiting for transfer to the children intensive care unit elsewhere she slightly deteriorated neurologically. Repeat CT scan of the brain 4 h after initial presentation remarkably showed that the subdural hematoma had now largely disappeared, with a decrease in volume and density. Consequently, the mass effect diminished with a near normalization of the midline shift.
