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

Brain ischemia after central nervous system (CNS) bleeding significantly influences the final outcome of patients. Catalytic activities of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to detect brain ischemia were determined in this study. The principal aim of our study was to compare the dynamics of AST in 1956 CSF samples collected from 215 patients within a 3-week period after CNS hemorrhage. We compared concentrations of the AST catalytic activities in the CSF of two patient groups: survivors (Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) 5-3) and patients in a vegetative state or dead (GOS 2-1). All statistical evaluations were performed using mixed models and the F-test adjusted by Kenward and Roger and the Bonferroni adjustment for multiple tests. The significantly higher catalytic activities of AST in the CSF from patients with the GOS of 2-1 when compared to those who survived (GOS 5-3,
