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

Headache represents the second neurological cause of emergency room admittance. The differentiation of the small number of patients with life-threatening headaches from the overwhelming majority with benign primary headaches is an important problem in the emergency department since the misdiagnosis of a secondary headache can have serious consequences, including permanent neurologic deficits and death. The presence of one or more high-risk features (red flags) in patient clinical history or neurological examination warrants an urgent diagnostic workup including blood tests, neuroradiological studies, and lumbar puncture.
