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

The objective of this study is to analyze the treatment mechanism of decompressive craniectomy for intracranial infection in patients with hydrocephalus after craniocerebral injury, and to provide a treatment plan for intracranial infection in patients with hydrocephalus after craniocerebral injury. In this study, literature screening and data acquisition were carried out firstly based on the research content, and then heterogeneity analysis, Meta-analysis, sensitivity analysis, and publication bias analysis were performed using statistical methods for the unilateral and bilateral decompressive craniectomy. Heterogeneity analysis, Meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis of indiscriminate unilateral decompressive craniectomy was performed; heterogeneity analysis, Meta-analysis, cumulative Meta-analysis, and sensitivity analysis for bilateral decompressive craniectomy were performed. In this study, the order of influence on patients with hydrocephalus after brain injury was as follows: bilateral decompressive craniectomy > unilateral and bilateral decompressive decompression > indiscriminate unilateral decompressive. Intracranial infection in patients with hydrocephalus after the craniocerebral injury should be comprehensively evaluated before the surgery and given clinical treatment in time.
