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

Post-traumatic basal ganglia-internal capsule (BGIC) infarction in pediatric patients is a relatively rare consequence of mild head injury (MHI). To the best of the authors' knowledge, at present, no comprehensive review has been published. To review research on BGIC infarction after MHI, a literature search was performed using the PubMed database and relevant search terms. According to recent data, MHI may cause BGIC infarction due to mechanical vasospasm of the perforating vessels in pediatric patients. The anatomical characteristics of the growing brain in infancy, mineralization of the lenticulostriate arteries and viral infection may all play a part in BGIC infarction after MHI, which often occurs within 24 months. Symptoms are not as severe and tend to disappear in the early period. Computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging often shows BGIC infarction. There are also children with scattered calcification of the basal ganglia. Neural rehabilitation is a commonly accepted treatment. The prognosis of patients with BGIC infarction after MHI consistently improves.
