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

Remote cerebellar hemorrhage (RCH) is a rare yet potentially fatal complication of supratentorial and spinal surgery, where there has been either intentional or accidental breach of the dura. We present a case of RCH following a L4-5 decompression laminectomy complicated by an intraoperative dural tear which was detected and repaired at the time of surgery. Despite prompt intra-operative repair of the dura, there was persistent cerebrospinal fluid leak as evidenced by a high subfascial epidural drain output which resulted in bilateral intraparenchymal cerebellar hemorrhage. The patient was managed conservatively and recovered without neurological deficits.
