Two pediatric cases of epidural hematoma in the posterior fossa with extension along the sigmoid sinus groove: MR evaluation.

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
To discuss the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) findings of posterior fossa epidural hematoma (PFEDH) mimicking sinus thrombosis, we present two pediatric cases with the PFEDH extending along the sigmoid sinus groove evaluated by MR imaging (MRI) and MR venography (MRV). T2-weighted coronal MRI can diagnose both patency of the sigmoid sinus and epidural hematoma extending along the sinus groove. Phase-contrast MRV (PC-MRV) is also useful to evaluate the flow state in the dural sinuses but it should be diagnosed carefully whether low visualization of the dural sinus means only functional flow impairment or organized occlusion due to thrombus. To avoid an unnecessary anticoagulant therapy that may worsen epidural hematoma, it is important to recognize the pitfall that PFEDH extending along the sinus groove is easy to misdiagnose for a dural sinus thrombosis.
